APEC Travel Business Card

The APEC Business Travel Card (ABTC) is meant to facilitate travel for U.S. citizens engaged in verified business in the APEC region.{{cite web | url=https://www.cbp.gov/travel/trusted-traveler-programs/us-apec-business-travel-card-program-frequently-asked-questions2 | title=U.S. APEC Business Travel Card Program Frequently Asked Questions - U.S. Customs and Border Protection | access-date=May 19, 2016 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160507203450/https://www.cbp.gov/travel/trusted-traveler-programs/us-apec-business-travel-card-program-frequently-asked-questions2 | archive-date=May 7, 2016 | url-status=dead}}

The U.S. ABTC should enable access to a dedicated fast-track lane for expedited immigration processing at some participating foreign APEC member airports.{{cite web | url=http://travel.apec.org/abtc-summary.html | title=ABTC Summary - APEC Business Travel Card|access-date=April 2, 2018 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161019010749/http://travel.apec.org/abtc-summary.html|archive-date=October 19, 2016 | url-status=dead}}

As the U.S. is a transitional member of the ABTC scheme, however, the U.S. APEC Business Travel Card cannot be used in lieu of a visa to enter an APEC member country.{{cite web | title=The Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Business Travel Card | url=https://www.apec.org/groups/committee-on-trade-and-investment/business-mobility-group/abtc | website=APEC | access-date=December 2, 2021 | language=en | date=September 2021}} The program was initially set to expire on September 30, 2018, but the November 2017 signing of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Business Travel Cards Act of 2017 (S. 504) ensured it would permanently remain.{{cite web | url=https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/504 | title=S.504 - Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Business Travel Cards Act of 2017 | work=Congress.gov | date=November 2, 2017 | access-date=August 12, 2019}}
