USCG revises Port Security Advisory
US Coast Guard has determined that the Republic of the Gambia (The Gambia) is not maintaining effective anti-terrorism measures in all of its ports.
Actions required as listed in paragraphs C and D of USCG Port Security Advisory (please see below) take effect for all vessels that arrive in the United States on or after July 6, 2015 after visiting ports in The Gambia as one of the their last five ports of call.
All vessels that visited the countries/facilities listed in paragraph B of the USCG Advisory (with exceptions noted) during their last five port calls will be boarded or examined at sea by the Coast Guard to ensure required actions were taken.
Failure to properly implement the actions listed in paragraph C.1 through C.5 of the attached advisory may result in delay or denial of entry into the United States.
