Abstract: Abstract Activities at an international border are meant to ensure the security of the residents of a country. The inevitable results are “cross-border issues”—challenges, decisions, and responsibilities not encountered when movements of freight or people are entirely within one nation. This chapter discusses the most common cross-border events that carriers, shippers, importers, and exporters encounter when products move across an international frontier, with an emphasis on academic research on border issues and operations.
