【Attention U.S. Immigrants】Beware! If these four letters appear on your boarding pass to the U.S., it means you have been targeted!
Usually, after checking in at the airport counter, passengers receive a boarding pass from the ground staff, which contains your name, flight number, date, departure time, and seat. But what is the meaning of this "SSSS"?
“What is the deep meaning behind this mysterious mark?”
"SSSS" stands for Secondary Security Screening Selection, which is a designation by the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requiring passengers to undergo additional security screening. Passengers on all international flights to the U.S. and domestic U.S. flights may receive a boarding pass with this code.
After passengers pass the standard check and the secondary security screening and are cleared of suspicion, TSA staff will mark their boarding passes with unique symbols—a handwritten SSSS-10 and three stars next to the SSSS (as shown in the image below). These marks change frequently and vary by airport.
Therefore, after passing through secondary security, it is best for passengers to check their boarding pass to see if there are similar marks; otherwise, you might be required to undergo security screening again before boarding.
“Who gets marked with 'SSSS'?”
Officials claim it is random, but relevant officials have stated that the TSA uses the U.S. Terrorist Screening Database to select passengers who need to undergo secondary security screening.
So, who is more likely to be on the "SSSS" list:
1. People from high-risk countries
2. People who frequently travel to high-risk countries
3. People on international terrorist watchlists
4. People who share the same name as criminals or terrorists
5. People who purchase round-trip tickets for the same day
6. People who purchase tickets with cash on the day of travel
“What to do after being marked with 'SSSS'?”
1. Before getting your boarding pass, how do you know if you have been selected?
If you try to check in early using your mobile phone, computer, or an airport self-service kiosk, but the system does not allow it and requires you to pick up your ticket at the counter, then you are likely...
2. What to do after being selected for "SSSS"?
If "SSSS" appears on your boarding pass, it is recommended to go directly to the security checkpoint and try to leave extra time for the secondary security screening to avoid missing your flight.
3. If you are frequently listed as "SSSS", can you apply for removal?
You can file an appeal (webpage https://www.dhs.gov/dhs-trip), but the process is not easy.
In this regard, WorldWay kindly reminds you: People listed on the "SSSS" list cannot print their boarding passes by themselves.
Although secondary security screening does not mean you will be prohibited from leaving the country, it does take more time, so it is recommended to reserve more time for boarding. Passengers who are unwilling to undergo secondary security screening may be denied boarding. If you unfortunately encounter this situation, do not worry too much; just accept the security check. In any case, it is necessary to leave sufficient time.
