The Government of Belize introduced its new biometric screening system in partnership with the United States during a ceremony in Belmopan on Monday, January 12.
“This milestone continues the enduring partnership between the US Department of Homeland Security and Belize’s Ministry of Immigration, as well as other key agencies through the BDSP (Biometric Data Sharing Program). We are not only sharing critical biometric data to bolster the safety of Belize in the United States, but most importantly, we are exchanging expertise, building capacity, and promoting best practices in border security,” said Katherine Beamer, Charge d’Affaires for the US Embassy.
