Intransit through IAH
I am flying from Tokyo to Houston and will connect same day on a flight to Port of Spain, Trinidad. Previously in Houston there was a one-stop facility for international to international intransit passengers whereby it was not necessary to claim and recheck baggage. Does this still apply?

I can confirm that after the immigration at IAH, you must pick up your bags, go through a small customs checkpoint, then recheck them immediately after the customs stand. It is very simple and quick (as they simply scan your baggage tag and put your bags on a conveyor belt) - and then you can proceed through the security checkpoint upstairs.
