1.TSA is the abbreviation of U.S. Transportation Security Administration, which means US Transportation Security Administration.
2. Explanation of TSA certification
(1) Beginning in January 2003, TSA requires that all baggage entering the U.S. airport must be opened for inspection. At the same time, TSA issues a warning: Unless a TSA-certified lock is used, the checked baggage must either be unlocked or the customs has the right to pry. Unlock the checked luggage lock.
(2) There are two methods for unlocking the TSA lock: one is the key equipped with the lock itself or the password set by the consumer, and the other is the customs-specific key. The customs has a TSA unlock key.
(3) There must be a red diamond sign on the front and back of this lock. As long as the customs sees that sign, the customs knows that it is necessary to unlock it with a key (the corresponding key number is indicated on the bottom of the lock) without prying to damage.
(4) TSA strictly trains customs inspectors. When opening the baggage inspection, be very careful to ensure safety. After the inspection, the luggage must be locked again.
(5) TSA locks can also be used outside the United States.
For example: the TSA code lock produced by PELICAN from the United States. You can see the red diamond logo on the front and back. Using this lock, you can avoid the possibility of the security personnel of the local airport being damaged when you want to lock the lock when traveling abroad.
