TSA Air Cargo Security Directives

TSA Air Cargo Security Directives are mandatory rules issued by the Transportation Security Administration to safeguard cargo transported by air. They specify security measures for shippers, carriers, and handlers to prevent dangerous items or substances from entering aircraft. These directives include procedures like screening cargo, verifying security, and maintaining chain-of-custody. Their purpose is to ensure that all cargo flying on passenger or cargo planes is safe, reducing the risk of threats or attacks while maintaining efficient air transportation. Compliance with these directives helps protect passengers, crew, and the broader aviation industry.
