Registered Traveler
Our Approach
As a result of the July 30, 2008 Federal Register Notice (FRN) regarding Registered Traveler (RT), the Registered Traveler Interoperability Pilot (RTIP) was concluded, which cleared the way for further transition of the RT Program into a private sector enterprise beyond the 20 RTIP locations. Additional changes to the program, as a result of the FRN, include:
- Elimination of the TSA-conducted security threat assessments for RT participants and associated fees.
- Migrating Service Provider Key Personnel vetting to the Aviation Workers Program.
During the transition process, relevant RT Program documentation for both Sponsoring Entities (SEs) and Service Providers (SPs) will be updated in accordance with the July 30, 2008 FRN. However, until further guidance is issued by TSA, SEs and SPs should continue to use the current RT Program documentation unless otherwise specified in the FRN.
