Thank you for expressing interest in utilizing the Electronic Immigration Bonds System (eBONDS). eBONDS is a new, web-based system that was developed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to streamline, standardize and automate the immigrations bond process. Using this system will allow your agents to initiate, complete and digitally sign immigration bonds online.
The first step towards gaining access to eBONDS is to complete all forms enclosed in this packet. Please complete the eBONDS Access Application and Agreement, sign the Rules of Behavior and ensure that all users complete the enclosed Information Assurance Awareness Training
Please take the time to carefully read through all the documents and submit your application with all additional required documentation. Registration for eBONDS will not be complete without a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) certificate; as without a PKI certificate, you will not be able to use all of the functions of eBONDS. It is estimated that it will take approximately two to four weeks to obtain a PKI certificate from VeriSign. For additional PKI Certificate information, go to www.VeriSign.com for government authentication.
Please mail all required materials to Immigration Customs Enforcement, Office of Detention and Removal Operation, Bond Management Unit, Attn: Carl Albritton, 500 12th St, SW, Suite 5220, Washington DC, 20536. If you have any additional questions, please e-mail the Headquarters Bond Management Unit at [email protected].
Thank you for your time. We look forward to working with you.
Sincerely,
Walter P. LeRoy
Chief, Bond Management Unit
