<body>
<p>DHS is revising its regulations governing service of bond notifications. This rule is consistent with Executive Order 14058, which directs agencies&nbsp;to take actions that improve service delivery and customer experience by decreasing administrative burdens, enhancing transparency, and improving the efficiency and effectiveness of government. Current regulations authorize ICE to serve documents in-person, or by certified, registered, or first-class (regular) mail. This interim final rule authorizes ICE to electronically serve bond-related notifications to obligors for immigration bonds. The ICE transition to electronic notifications for bond-related documents is part of an electronic bonds system ICE developed to simplify the posting of bonds.</p>
