Borderforce USA

With Stampede Productions and BossaNova media returning to the US border for the 7th time in 2025, the Borderforce USA brand continues to go from strength to strength.

The work of Customs and Border Protection officers policing the international crossings between the US and Mexico remain the bedrock of the series, with the ever-evolving cast of drug smugglers, pill-poppers, wanted criminals and teenage runaways they encounter, never ceasing to amaze and astonish.

After expanding access in season six to also include the northern border with Canada in Detroit, season seven sees further development of the brand, with rare access to the San Ysidro Port of Entry in San Diego. The busiest land crossing in the western hemisphere, and one of the most notorious, filming there has brought a wealth of new stories, from young body-carriers strapping kilos of drugs to their backs, to a bus laden with a staggering 220kgs of cocaine.

Not all contraband is heading into America. In Eagle Pass (another of the new locations added in season 6), the outbound enforcement team is among the best in the business – regularly intercepting assault rifles, hand guns and drug money, all destined for the Mexican cartels.

Add the plethora of travellers attempting to cross with forbidden plants, foods and even animals - and there’s never a dull day at the border.
