| Ports of entry are responsible for
daily port specific operations. There are 317 official ports of
entry in the United States and 14 preclearance offices in Canada and
the Caribbean. Port personnel are the face at the border for most
cargo and visitors entering the United States. Here CBP enforces the
import and export laws and regulations of the U.S. federal
government and conducts immigration policy and programs. Ports also
perform agriculture inspections to protect the USA from potential
carriers of animal and plant pests or diseases that could cause
serious damage to America's crops, livestock, pets, and the
environment.
