It is important that the traveler matches the travel document
(passport, alien registration number, etc.), and the travel document matches the data input in the Electronic Advance Passenger Information System (eAPIS) manifest before submitting the eAPIS manifest to CBP.
If a traveler has more than one passport, be sure the passport being carried matches the travel document data in the
eAPIS manifest. If the traveler is a U.S. citizen, U.S. passport must be used. And don’t forget to check the expiration date.
After an eAPIS manifest has been submitted, a confirmation email receipt (“Notification of Receipt of Transmission”) from APISConfirmNoReply@dhs.gov is sent to the submitter’s email address on file. When you receive your confirmation receipt email, you must follow any and all instructions contained therein. If the email confirmation receipt is not received, contact the CBP port associated with your flight..
General aviation aircraft may depart from any U.S. port or place.
Once the eAPIS manifest has been processed, the receipt message will instruct you to proceed with the departure flight. Unless CBP or another DHS agency contacts you, you are cleared to go!

Inward Declaration Form
The Bahamas Customs Department requires declaration forms
There are two types of inward declaration forms
All types of operations can use a C7 General Declaration form. This includes both private, business, and for hire use.
The Bahamas Customs Department also accepts Form C7A
The C7A combines an inward declaration and a cruising permit
A Cruising Permit is required for flying throughout the islands.
Complete at least four Inward Declaration forms
If a C7A is used, you will keep one stamped copy with you for traveling to other islands to show Customs at other airports.
