Tashkent -> Doha/Istanbul -> Miami with ADIT (I-551) stamp

Hi all, I am a US lawful permanent resident. Traveling Tashkent -> Doha or Istanbul -> Miami in Nov 2025. I have a valid temporary I-551 stamp (ADIT) on an I-94 with photo, valid until Jan 2026.
Has anyone flown this route recently with this stamp? Any issues at Tashkent check-in or at the US-bound gate? Any tips that helped you board? Thanks!
 
That’s a very specific question. More generally, are you asking whether airlines recognize the ADIT stamp? Or are you wanting to use it for something else (like a transit visa waiver)?
 
Yes, i'm concerned about stamp not being recognized. I'm not sure why, but I can't post messages here normally with all info I have. Sorry about that.
I'm trying to understand, what supporting documents should I bring to gate agents and show it to them in case they don't accept adit stamp as valid document.
 
I'm still having issues posting messages here, it says that my message could be spam or contain errors. Not sure what to do
 
There is a “carrier manual” CBP publishes for the airlines. I’m on my phone so can’t look it up now, but it includes all the various options LPRs can use to board flights with. You may want to search for it and make a copy of the relevant section. It may be worthwhile getting to the airport a little early in case the check in agent doesn’t recognize it and you need to speak to a supervisor. Worst case, insist they call their CBP liaison to check.
 
Hi all, thank you for help. Do you think that showing them CBP carrier guide would be enough?
Are there any other options? What about CBP Carrier Liaison Program? Apparently there is a way for airline to call this program and confirm?

Yes, that’s what I suggested in post #5
