This figure was parsed from Homeland Security's FY2027 Congressional Justification, not from a standard budget exhibit. It is approximate and it is not summable with other lines. It is published so you can check it: the citation below names the exact page it was read off. Where a dollar figure matters, verify it there before using it.

The FY2027 President's Budget requests $1.10B for COBRA Customs Fees, within Homeland Security's COBRA Customs Fees account. That is up 10% on the FY2026 figure of $1.00B, which is a continuing-resolution annualized figure, not an enacted appropriation.

The prior-year column is a CR annualized figure — the rate a continuing resolution funds at, not an enacted appropriation. The two are different numbers and are not interchangeable. Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.

From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Homeland Security's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.

In the agency's own words

What this funds

Revenue from fees established by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA), Pub. Law 99-272, helps U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) recover costs incurred in the performance of customs inspections to facilitate legitimate trade and travel through U.S. ports of entry (POE), while keeping the United States secure. Collections from the COBRA user fees are made available through a permanent/indefinite appropriation, created by the user fee statute. Fee Uses: COBRA user fee collections fund customs inspectional activities that are mandated by law. Supported by fee revenues, CBP Officers help ensure that all carriers, passengers, and their personal effects entering the United States are compliant with U.S. customs laws. The COBRA and Express Consignment Carrier Facility (ECCF) user fees support the inspectional functions performed by CBP at POEs. To the extent that revenues are available, the estimated fiscal year (FY) 2026 and FY 2027 collections will fund the activities enumerated in the COBRA statute.

What was actually awarded

Contracts funded by this line

101 linked contracts. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
