Certified cargo screening locations
Screening location information will be updated weekly on the TSA website. (TSA is aware that some screening firms may not wish to have their information published.)
Independent cargo screening facility locations
Shippers that do not want to become a Certified Cargo Screener but wish to avoid potential delays or damage to their shipments due to the screening process can use a freight forwarder’s Indirect Air Carrier (IAC) services, or use an Independent Cargo Screening Facility (ICSF). An ICSF is an independent cargo screening facility that is authorized by TSA only to screen cargo that will be transported by a passenger air carrier. Most ICSFs are not freight forwarders.
