 C-TPAT Status Verification Interface (SVI) Overview
As stated in the C-TPAT Security Criteria, Certified C-TPAT partners need to verify the participation status of other eligible C-TPAT business partners. To address this need, CBP has created the Status Verification Interface (SVI). The SVI allows consenting certified C-TPAT partners to verify the participation status of other consenting certified C-TPAT partners. Each party must have consented to the release of their company name among the C-TPAT membership. The SVI is the point of electronic access to verify the C-TPAT status of another Status Verification Interface Participant (SVIP).Access to the C-TPAT SVI is now found in the C-TPAT Security Link Portal. SVI Access is granted to certified C-TPAT partners who meet the specific SVIP criteria. To qualify as a SVIP, participants must have:- Access to the Internet C-TPAT Security Link Portal;
- Achieved certification status as a C-TPAT participant;
- Generate an SVI alpha-numeric status identification number (ID) in the C-TPAT Security Link Portal;
- Accepted the terms of the electronic C-TPAT CONSENT TO USE COMPANY NAME form found in the C-TPAT Security Link Portal.
