3. TAPA Standards

TAPA Security Standards

The following global TAPA Security Standards have been created to ensure secure transportation and storage of high-value theft-targeted cargo:

 The Facility Security Requirements (FSR) represents minimum standards specifically for secure warehousing, or in-transit storage, within a supply chain.

 The Trucking Security Requirements (TSR) focuses exclusively on transport by truck and represents minimum standards specifically for transporting products via road within a supply chain.

TAPA global Security Standards are reviewed and revised as needed every three years.

This document addresses the FSR only and explains TAPA FSR Certification in Section 6.

Implementation

Successful implementation of the TAPA Security Standards is dependent upon LSPs (Logistics Service Providers)/Applicants, Buyers (owners of the cargo), and TAPA Authorized Auditors working together.
