CBP Enforces Binary Sex Codes and Enhanced US Passport Validation in APIS


Sex Field Requirements: Effective Oct. 14, 2025, CBP systems will only accept “M” (Male) or “F” (Female) in the sex field of APIS transmissions. Any other characters will result in an “X Response-Insufficient Information” error, requiring airlines to resubmit the passenger data with corrected information.

      No, no, no. To keep the old people voting block, they’ll just keep those damned lazy millennial and further youths from getting it. Remember the boomer motto: “fuck you, got ours.”
