TSA Program to Increase Port Security - Now Easier Than Ever to Enroll
TWIC is an essential layer of maritime security that will ensure only vetted workers have unescorted access to secure areas of ports and vessels.
Workers are encouraged to enroll as soon as possible to make certain they will not be affected when TWIC enforcement begins in the coming months. Workers are able to pre-enroll for TWIC online, which reduces their waiting at enrollment centers and the time it takes to enroll.
