If an alien seaman whose name is not included in a visaed crew list arrives at a port of the United States he shall not be allowed to land except upon the permission of the Secretary of State.

(6) Aliens making round-trip cruises from American ports without transshipment from the original vessel to another one while en route, provided the original contract for passage calls for transportation from an American port to the ports included in the cruise, and return to either the original or another American port, require no visas for reentry into the United States.

(7) Aliens of no nationality, and those who, when they apply for visas, are outside of the territories of the countries to which they owe allegiance and who, for any reason, are unable to obtain passports or documents in the nature of passports issued by the governments of such countries, and aliens bearing passports issued by governments not recognized by the United States. They may enter the United States with documents showing their origin and identity, visaed by consuls, under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of State.

(1) Aliens entering the Philippine Islands, except those referred to in II (2), must present passports or documents in the nature of passports, duly visaed by consular officers of the United States; but seamen on vessels of all nationalities touching at a port of the Philippine Islands are not required to be documented. Masters of such vessels are, therefore, not required to present visaed crew lists. (2) Aliens entering any other American possessions not included under Section 28 (a) of the Immigration Act of 1924, do not require documents of any kind.

The definition contained in Section 28 of the Immigration Act of 1924 shall be regarded as applicable to this order, except as herein otherwise specified.

The Secretary of State and the Secretary of Labor are hereby authorized to make such additional rules and regulations, not inconsistent with this order, as may be deemed necessary for carrying out the provisions of this order and the statutes mentioned herein, This order shall take effect April 1, 1928, and shall supersede the Executive Order of July 12, 1926, entitled "Documents Required of Aliens Entering the United States" [p. 234], but shall not supersede the Executive Order of July 14, 1924, entitled "Documents Required of Aliens Entering the United States on Airships" [p. 230], the Executive Order of May 13, 1927, entitled "Documents Required of Bona Fide Alien Seamen Entering the United States as Passengers" [p. 236], or the Executive Order of July 11, 1927, relative to Article XXII of the Consular Regulations of 1896.1

DOCUMENTS REQUIRED OF ALIENS ENTERING THE
UNITED STATES

FROM AUGUST 20, 1930, TO JUNE 30, 1932

[Executive Order No. 5426 of August 20, 1930]

By virtue of the authority vested in me by the act of Congress approved May 22, 1918 (40 Stat. 559), entitled "An act to prevent in time of war departure from or entry into the United States contrary to the public safety," as extended by the act of Congress of March 2, 1921 (41 Stat. 1205), entitled "An act making appropriations for the Diplomatic and Consular Service for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1922," and with reference to the act of Congress of May 26, 1924 (48 Stat. 153), as amended, known as the "Immigration Act of 1924," I hereby prescribe the following regulations governing the entry of aliens into the United States. (In addition to the general immigration laws and regulations, there are special laws and regulations governing the admission of Chinese.)

I

IMMIGRANTS

Immigrants must present immigration visas, quota or nonquota, in accordance with the requirements of the Immigration Act of 1924, except

(1) Children born subsequent to the issuance of the immigration visa of the accompanying parent. (Sec. 13 (a) (1), Immigration Act of 1924.) Such children are not required to present documents of any kind.

(2) Aliens who have previously been admitted legally into the United States, have departed therefrom and returned within six months, not having proceeded to countries other than Canada, Newfoundland, St. Pierre, Miquelon, Bermuda, Mexico, Cuba, and other islands included in the Bahama and Greater Antilles groups, are not required to present passports, visas, or permits to reenter.

(8) Aliens, other than those specified in (2) above, who have previously been admitted legally into the United States, have departed therefrom, and are returning from a temporary visit abroad, may present, in lieu of immigration visas, permits to reenter, issued suant to section 10 of the Immigration Act of 1924.

pur

With reference to section 28 (e) of the Immigration Act of 1924, the Executive Secretary of the Panama Canal, Balboa Heights, Canal Zone, is hereby authorized to issue immigration visas to aliens coming to the United States from the Canal Zone; the Collector of Customs of the Philippine Islands is hereby authorized to issue immigration_visas to aliens coming to the United States from the Philippine Islands; the Governor of American Samoa is hereby authorized to issue immigration visas to aliens coming to the United States from American Samoa; and the Governor of Guam is hereby authorized to issue immigration visas to aliens coming to the United States from Guam.

II

NONIMMIGRANTS

With the exceptions hereinafter specified, nonimmigrants must present passports or official documents in the nature of passports

issued by the governments of the countries to which they owe allegiance, duly visaed by consular officers of the United States; Provided, however, That no passport visa or transit certificate to enter the United States or the Philippine Islands shall be granted to such an alien if such entry would be contrary to the public safety.

Exceptions:

(1) Persons in transit through the United States or the Philippine Islands to a foreign destination. They may present transit certificates according to regulations prescribed by the Secretary

of State.

(2) Aliens who are through passengers on vessels touching at ports of the United States. In this connection the term "United States" is to be construed as in section 1 of the Immigration Act of 1917. They may land temporarily, under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Labor, without documents of any kind. (3) Passports may include any person or persons whose inclusion is proper under the regulations of the issuing government and whose photographs are attached thereto.

(4) Citizens of St. Pierre and Miquelon and French citizens domiciled therein; citizens of Canada, Newfoundland, Bermuda, the Bahamas, and British possessions in the Greater Antilles, and British subjects domiciled therein; citizens of Panama, Mexico, Cuba, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic. Such persons may pass in transit through the United States, or enter the United States temporarily, without passports, visas, or transit certificates.

(5) Seamen. Masters of vessels of all nationalities sailing for a port of the United States must submit for visa a list of all the alien members of the vessel's crew to the American consular officer at the port from which the vessel commences its voyage. If there is no American consular officer stationed at that port, the crew list should be submitted at the first port of call (if the vessel touches at any other port) where an American consular officer is located. This does not refer to consular agents, who are not authorized to visa crew lists. However, this paragraph has no application to members of crews of vessels sailing between ports of the United States and ports of Canada, Newfoundland, St. Pierre, and Miquelon and not touching at ports of other countries. Such persons are not required to be documented.

When a vessel sails from a port where no American consul is stationed, but which is within a few hours reach by mail of an American consulate, so that unreasonable delay and serious loss would not result from referring the crew list to such consulate, it should be referred thereto for visa.

The visa of a shipping commissioner in the Canal Zone shall be accepted as equivalent to the visa of an American consul.

If an alien seaman whose name is not included in a visaed crew list arrives at a port of the United States he shall not be allowed to land except upon the permission of the Secretary of State.

(6) Aliens making round-trip cruises from American ports without transshipment from the original vessel to another one while en route, provided the original contract for passage calls for transportation from an American port to the ports included in

the cruise, and return to either the original or another American port, require no visas for reentry into the United States.

(7) Aliens of no nationality, and those who, when they apply for visas, are outside of the territories of the countries to which they owe allegiance and who, for any reason, are unable to obtain passports or documents in the nature of passports issued by the governments of such countries, and aliens bearing passports issued by governments not recognized by the United States. They may enter the United States with documents showing their origin and identity, visaed by consuls, under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of State.

(8) In cases of emergency the Secretary of State is authorized in his discretion to waive passport and visa requirements for aliens who are nonimmigrants as defined in section 8 of the Immigration Act of 1924, as amended, and who apply for admission at a port of entry of the United States.

III

(1) Aliens entering the Philippine Islands, except those referred to in II (1) and II (2), must present passports or documents in the nature of passports, duly visaed by consular officers of the United States; but seamen on vessels of all nationalities touching at a port of the Philippine Islands are not required to be documented. Masters of such vessels are, therefore, not required to present visaed crew lists.

(2) Aliens entering any other American possessions not included under section 28 (a) of the Immigration Act of 1924, do not require documents of any kind.

The definition contained in section 28 of the Immigration Act of 1924 shall be regarded as applicable to this order, except as herein otherwise specified.

The Secretary of State and the Secretary of Labor are hereby authorized to make such additional rules and regulations, not inconsistent with this order, as may be deemed necessary for carrying out the provisions of this order and the statutes mentioned herein.

This order shall take effect immediately and shall supersede the Executive Order No. 4813 of February 21, 1928, entitled, "Documents Required of Aliens Entering the United States" [p. 238], but shall not supersede Executive Order No. 4049 of July 14, 1924, entitled "Documents required of Aliens entering the United States on Airships" [p. 280], Executive Order No. 4648 of May 13, 1927, entitled "Documents Required of Bona Fide Alien Seamen Entering the United States as Passengers" [p. 237], or Executive Order No. 4690 of July 11, 1927, relative to Article XXII of the Consular Regulations of 1896.1

18 Executive Order No. 5426 of August 20, 1930, has been superseded by Executive Order No. 5869 of June 30, 1932. However, Executive Order No. 5426, may have effect on deportation cases of allens who did not have the documents required by this Executive Order at the time of their arrival. See also Executive Orders, No. 5869 (June 80, 1932), p. 244, No. 6987 (March 9, 1935), p. 248, No. 6986 (March 9, 1935), p. 250, No. 7865 (April 12, 1988), p. 254, No. 8029 (December 27, 1938), p. 258, No. 8480 (June 5, 1940), p. 263, No. 8766 (June 3, 1941), p. 266, Presidential Proclamation 2528 (Nov. 14, 1941), p. 269, and Execuive Order 9352 (June 15, 1943), p. 284, for documentary requirements during other periods subsequent to August 20, 1930.
