On October 5, 2021, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Acting Commissioner Troy Miller led a CBP delegation to Colombia. Acting Commissioner Miller held constructive and action-oriented discussions with the Director General of Colombia Migration as well as with the Director of Border Development and Integration within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. While the visit focused on irregular migration, the trip also included productive engagement with Customs counterparts and the American Chamber of Commerce on trade facilitation efforts and a signing ceremony with Colombian National Police Anti-Narcotics Division (DIRAN) to formalize CBP’s relationship with them in support of the Container Security Initiative (CSI) and the Joint Security Program (JSP).
