 Welcome to the National Vessel
Movement Center (NVMC) Download Page. From this page, you can download files

Use of USCG-formatted NOA methods does not relieve the submitter of the
responsibility to know the regulatory requirements pertaining to its vessel and
to ensure submission of a complete and accurate notice of arrival or notice of
departure as specified in the aforementioned regulations. Failure to timely and
accurately comply with the regulations may result in enforcement actions,
including civil penalties. The Coast Guard takes no responsibility for any
damages resulting from the failure to comply with the pertinent NOA and APIS
regulations.

PDF version of user guide.
e-NOA/D
User Guide – Web-based interactive version.
Updated 11 March 2008. Web-based
version of user guide. No downloading of files required and fully searchable!
This document provides extensive guidance in the use of the e-NOA/D, which can
be found here
. Use of this format is voluntary. The e-NOA/D is provided to expedite
processing of reports by the NVMC. All the data submitted through the e-NOA/D
is automatically sent to both the United States Coast Guard (USCG) and Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to relieve the burden of filling out separate forms
or going to separate websites for each agency. The forwarding is all done on
our end. You will notice there are new fields that correspond to CBP's upcoming
regulation. The capability to update previously submitted e-NOA/Ds sent through
this system has also been added. Using this format, you can log back in and
send updated information (arrival time, date, and so forth) without having to
start over. While the earlier version had the capability to allow you to copy a
previous e-NOA and re-use the majority of the data, this new version adds the
capability to save incomplete e-NOA/Ds so that you may work on them at your own
pace without fear of losing data if sidetracked. We have also added a password
management tool to allow you to manage your own username and password. You will
also notice many changes to the structure of the website. In order to improve
performance for our customers with dial-up modems, we have split the e-NOA/D
into logical sections. Another benefit of the division of the e-NOA/D into
these sections is that you will be able to see, at a glance, which sections are
complete and which are incomplete based on the color of the menu button.

This file creates an InfoPath template. InfoPath is
a rich client product that can mimic the functionality of our web-application
(the e-NOA/D). Its primary use in this application is to allow underway users
to view and fill out a simple format and email that as an attachment to the
NVMC, if the vessel does not have a constant connection to the Internet. The
use of this format is voluntary. (NOTE:
Please follow the instructions provided in the above "Getting Started" document
prior to downloading.

InfoPath e-NOA/D User Guide
This document provides extensive guidance in the use of the InfoPath template.
(NOTE: The difference between using this template and using the NOA
Workbook is that InfoPath condenses the data the user enters and converts it
into a raw, machine-readable XML format in the same manner as the e-NOA/D.)

Electronic Notice of Arrival/Departure (eNOA/D) Schema.
Updated 13 May 2005. *This download
requires registration. You will be redirected to the Developer Resources
Sign In page.
This schema is the basis for the e-NOA/D web application as well as for the
InfoPath template. This schema can be used to develop your own applications to
create XML formatted documents that can be submitted via web service to the
NVMC. Please check the NVMC website often for updates, or subscribe to the NVMC
newsletter to receive notice of updates via email. Please direct any
other questions regarding the schema to techsupport@nvmc.uscg.gov
. All third party applications must be tested first. Failure to
follow the schema and business rules and testing procedures may result in
delayed action in processing an e-NOA/D from third party software.
Notice of Arrival (NOA)
Workbook.
NOA Workbook, version 4.2 (updated 28 January 2005). Use of this format is
voluntary. This format is provided to expedite processing of reports by the
NVMC. It is requested that the worksheets/workbook are completed
electronically and sent via email (versus fax). (NOTE: Any
information received in this format is not routed to CBP in the same
manner as the e-NOA/D and the InfoPath template, as it is not in an XML
format. Submission via email will not allow the sender to receive a
receipt. This format will be phased out and in the future will no longer
be available for the maritime industry to submit NOAs.)
U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) Forms.
As a convenience to the public, NVMC has provided a link to the U.S. Customs
& Border Protection (CBP) forms page, which makes available their various
electronic forms online. These forms can be completed online, then
printed out.
CBP Vessel APIS Guide
Added 14 June 2006
As another convenience to the public, U.S. Customs & Border
Protection has provided a "Vessel APIS Guide" explaining the System
Identified Errors and Manifest Sufficiency Rates. This guide is in PDF
