This NAVADMIN directs Navy compliance with references (a) and (b) and provides amplifying guidance on foreign national physical access to Navy installations. Effective 25 February 2020, the Defense Manpower Data Center will make programming changes to the Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) removing implicit access to all U.S. Navy installations located in the Continental United States (CONUS) to include Hawaii and Guam for foreign nationals and their dependents. Foreign nationals in possession of a common access card (CAC) or their dependents in possession of dependent identification card will be required to be registered for explicit permission in order to access a Navy installation. As used in this NAVADMIN, the term installation includes base, site, and facility. Foreign national credentials must be provisioned for explicit access to each installation for which they are assigned and/or authorized access. Adherence to the guidance and timelines contained in paragraph 3 below will minimize operational impacts and disruption to foreign military partners. 2. Reference (d) defines the CAC as simultaneously establishing identity, fitness, and purpose for installation access. CACs held by U.S. military, Department of Defense (DoD) civilian personnel and direct support U.S. contractor personnel will continue to establish identity, fitness, and purpose. Per references (a) and (b), CACs with a blue stripe will establish identity and fitness only. Persons in possession of blue stripe CACs must establish purpose by appropriate documentation in order to gain access to a Navy installation. Per references (a) through (d) eligible foreign nationals, including International Military Students, will be issued a CAC with a blue stripe. Foreign nationals possessing a CAC with a blue stripe are limited to accessing only installations where they have an official duty or other authorized purpose which requires installation access. Dependents of foreign nationals, if eligible, will receive a Uniform Services Identification Card (USID), DD Form 1173 that establishes identity only and they are limited to accessing only installations where they have an authorized purpose which requires installation access. 3. Responsibilities a. Commander, Navy Installations Command (1) No later than 25 February 2020, Navy installations and any applicable installation associated sites will explicitly register foreign nationals, to include International Military Students, Foreign Liaison Office (FLO), Personnel Exchange Program (PEP) personnel, and their dependents, for access to their assigned duty station and facilitate the process for gaining access to additional Navy installations, as required. This process will be executed by each installation via the DBIDS registration workstation, in coordination with tenant organizations, at each installation or site. (2) Access Rosters: Upon receipt of the access rosters from tenant commands hosting foreign nationals currently enrolled in DBIDS, the Visitor Control Center (VCC)/access control personnel will explicitly grant access for foreign national personnel and their dependents to their assigned duty station (VCC personnel should refer to page 72 of the DBIDS User Manual for this process or the issued DBIDS Explicit Access Guide). The VCC personnel will notify the foreign nationals host command of any foreign nationals who cannot be granted explicit access. This may require the foreign national and/or their dependents, to conduct an in-person DBIDS enrollment at the VCC with supporting documentation, such as invitational travel orders. (3) Ensure all foreign nationals possessing a foreign national credential are processed through the Visitor Control Process (VCP) at the VCC for their first visit to the installation or issuance of a new credential. Once purpose is established by completing the VCP they will be enrolled in the installation/site Physical Action Control System (PACS) for subsequent base entry. (4) Per reference (d), installation entry control point personnel will scan all foreign national credentials when personnel enter the installation /site. (5) In the event that the installation/site Physical Access Control System is inoperable, or an installation/site is not equipped with a PACS, installations must verify foreign nationals U.S. Government issued Invitational Travel Orders, certification, other official orders, or other such documentation (e.g., similar to being able to provide vehicle registration and insurance documentation upon request) that establishes their purpose for accessing the intended installation/site. (6) Ensure installations adhere to the following: (a) Foreign nationals requiring access for official business to more than one Navy or DoD installation must have a signed letter, or other official documentation, issued by the appropriate U.S. Government Official identifying the purpose for access to the other installation(s); once purpose is established, foreign nationals will only be afforded access during the time periods identified in the members documentation for each individual location. (b) Verify that unofficial/leisure travel for foreign national students to other Navy installations is approved in writing by the responsible International Military Student Office (IMSO) or Commanding Officer (CO). The foreign national must have the signed letter in their possession and request access at the VCC. (c) Per the applicable international agreement, FLOs and PEPs may be granted explicit access to all Navy installations, which allows them to travel with their host units in the performance of their duties, as determined by the responsible contact officer or Co. FLOs and PEPs visiting installations where not assigned, will be required to report to the installation VCC with a signed letter, or other official documentation, issued by the designated contact officer or host CO identifying their purpose for access. (d) All foreign nationals on official business will carry their International Travel Orders, Visitors International Stay Admission (VISA), applicable international agreement, or other official documentation, on their person at all times while on the installation, and will present them to installation/site security forces when requested, for determining the purpose for access. PEPs and FLOs on official business will carry their certification, issued pursuant to the applicable international agreement. (7) The installation CO is the approval authority for all access requests for that installation. Regional commanders are encouraged to establish regional processes to facilitate access to other installations throughout their respective areas of responsibility. b. Tenant COs and Directors of Navy Activities. In order to minimize operational impact, adhere to the following: (1) Access Rosters: No later than 21 February 2020, the IMSO or a designated officer at Navy Commands hosting foreign nationals will develop a roster of foreign nationals currently enrolled in DBIDS and assigned to their respective command, schools, and training courses. This list will be submitted to the Installation Security Office for review and processing. The roster will identify: (a) The foreign nationals full name (b) Assigned command (c) Start/end dates of issued orders (d) The foreign nationals DoD ID number (e) Dependents names (if above 18 years old - as applicable) (f) Dependents DoD ID number (g) Navy organizational point of contact name, phone number and DoD ID number (must be a U.S. Government official/sponsor) (h) Location(s) required (2) Navy tenant commands responsible for hosting foreign nationals in the U.S. that are tenant organizations aboard joint bases or other Service installations/sites will follow with the orders, regulations, and policies of the host service installation commander. (3) Ensure assigned foreign nationals always have in their possession CACs and/or USIDs and their U.S. Government issued Invitational Travel Orders, certification, other official orders, or other such documentation (e.g., similar to being able to provide vehicle registration and insurance documentation upon request) that establishes their purpose for accessing the intended installation/site. (4) Ensure that FLOs and PEPs visiting installations where not assigned, will be required to report to the installation VCC with a signed letter, or other official documentation, issued by the designated contact officer or host CO identifying their purpose for access. (5) Ensure unofficial/leisure travel for foreign national students to other Navy installations is approved in writing by the responsible IMSO or CO. The foreign national must have the signed letter in their possession and request access at the VCC. (6) Navy tenant commands are responsible for validating, maintaining, and updating the list of their assigned foreign nationals, and for ensuring their check-in/check-out processes include the installation VCC to encourage enrollment upon reporting and disenrollment when detaching. (7) Tenant commands will maintain lists of foreign nationals for future data calls in support of installation access control. (8) All foreign nationals and their authorized dependents traveling to other Navy installations which they are not assigned to, are required to obtain approval in writing by the host commander or contact officer and encouraged to pre-register with the intended installation CO for the planned visit. 4. Trusted Traveler, Escorting, And Sponsorship. Per reference (d), Trusted Traveler privilege is prohibited for foreign nationals. Foreign nationals may not escort or sponsor other persons aboard Navy installations. 5. Applicability. This message applies to all Navy CONUS installations to include Hawaii and Guam, their associated sites, and Navy owned standalone facilities. Contents of this NAVADMIN will be incorporated into the next revision of OPNAVINST 5530.14 and applicable access control policies and may not be waived. 6. Released by VADM R. L.
