Easier Entry for Liquid Cargo Ship Workers

New rules simplify entry into the U.S. for ship workers involved in liquid cargo transfers between vessels. This aims to streamline maritime operations and could impact energy supply stability, indirectly affecting product prices and availability for citizens.
Key points
Ship workers performing liquid cargo transfers can transit through the U.S. for up to 180 days.
Temporary landing permits for these workers are simplified if they intend to continue work on a different vessel.
