Sec. 10.31 Entry; bond.
(a)(1) Entry of articles brought into the United States temporarily
and claimed to be exempt from duty under Chapter 98, Subchapter XIII,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), unless covered
by an A.T.A. carnet or a TECRO/AIT carnet as provided in part 114 of
this chapter, shall be made on Customs Form 3461 or 7533, supported by
the documentation required by Sec. 142.3 of this chapter. However, when
Sec. 10.36 or Sec. 10.36a is applicable, or the aggregate value of the
article is not over $250, the form prescribed for the informal entry of
importations by mail, in baggage, or by other means, may be used. When
entry is made on Customs Form 3461 or 7533, an entry summary, Customs
Form 7501, shall be filed within 10 days after time of entry, in
accordance with subpart B, part 142 of this chapter.
(2) If Customs Form 7501 is filed at time of entry, it shall serve
as both the entry and entry summary, and Customs Form 3461 or 7533 shall
not be required. Customs Form 7501 shall be in original only, except for
entries under subheading 9813.00.05, HTSUS, which require a duplicate
copy for statistical purposes. When articles are entered under an A.T.A.
carnet or a TECRO/AIT carnet, the importation voucher of the carnet
shall serve as the entry.
(3) In addition to the data usually shown on a regular consumption
entry summary, each temporary importation bond entry summary shall
include:
(i) The HTSUS subheading number under which entry is claimed.
(ii) A statement of the use to be made of the articles in sufficient
detail to enable the port director to determine whether they are
entitled to entry as claimed, and
(iii) A declaration that the articles are not to be put to any other
use and that they are not imported for sale or sale on approval.
(b) The port director, if he is satisfied as to the importer's
identity and good faith, may admit a vehicle or craft brought in by a
nonresident to take part in a race or other specific contest for which
no money purse is awarded, under the provisions of subheading
9813.00.35, HTSUS, without formal entry or security for exportation. If
at the time of arrival it appears that the article is likely to remain
in the United States beyond 90 days, formal entry and bond shall be taken.
(c) When any article has been admitted without formal entry or
security for exportation and the importer thereafter desires to prolong
his stay beyond 90 days, an entry covering the article and security for
its exportation shall be accepted at any port where the article may be
presented for entry. The time during which the imported article may
remain in the United States under the entry shall be computed from the
date of its original arrival in the United States. The estimated duties
for the purpose of fixing the amount of any bond required by paragraph
(f) of this section shall be the estimated duties which would have been
required to be deposited had the article been entered under an ordinary
consumption entry on the date of the original arrival.
(d) [Reserved]
(e) The entry or invoice shall: (1) Describe each article in detail;
(2) set forth the value of each article; and (3) set forth any marks or
numbers thereon or other distinguishing features thereof. In the case of
a vehicle, aircraft, or pleasure boat entered under subheading
9813.00.05, HTSUS and Sec. 10.36a, the registration number, and engine
or motor number, and the body number (if available) shall also be shown
on the entry. Examination of the imported articles shall be made
whenever the circumstances warrant, and occasionally in any event to an
extent which will enable the Customs officer to determine that the
importation is in agreement with the invoice or entry as to identity and
quantity and for the purpose of accepting the entry under the applicable
provisions of Chapter 98, Subchapter XIII, HTSUS. No examination for the
purpose of appraisement and no appraisement of the articles shall be
made.
(f) With the exceptions stated herein, a bond shall be given on
Customs Form 301, containing the bond conditions set forth in
Sec. 113.62 of this chapter, in an amount equal to double the duties,
including fees, which it is estimated would accrue (or such larger
amount as the port director shall state in writing or by the electronic
equivalent to the entrant is necessary to protect the revenue) had all
the articles covered by the entry been entered under an ordinary
consumption entry. In the case of samples solely for use in taking
orders entered under subheading 9813.00.20, HTSUS, motion-picture
advertising films entered under subheading 9813.00.25, HTSUS, and
professional equipment, tools of trade and repair components for such
equipment or tools entered under subheading 9813.00.50, HTSUS, the bond
required to be given shall be in an amount equal to 110 percent of the
estimated duties, including fees, determined at the time of entry. If
appropriate a carnet, under the provisions of part 114 of this chapter,
may be filed in lieu of a bond on Customs Form 301 (containing the bond
conditions set forth in Sec. 113.62 of this chapter). Cash deposits in
the amount of the bond may be accepted in lieu of sureties. When the
articles are entered under subheading 9813.00.05, 9813.00.20, or
9813.00.50, HTSUS without formal entry, as provided for in Secs. 10.36
and 10.36a, or the amount of the bond taken under any subheading of
Chapter 98, Subchapter XIII, HTSUS, is less than $25, the bond shall be
without surety or cash deposit, and the bond shall be modified to so
indicate. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this
paragraph, in the case of professional equipment necessary for carrying
out the business activity, trade or profession of a business person,
equipment for the press or for sound or television broadcasting,
cinematographic equipment, articles imported for sports purposes and
articles intended for display or demonstration, if brought into the
United States by a resident of Canada or Mexico and entered under
Chapter 98, Subchapter XIII, HTSUS, no bond or other security shall be
required if the entered article is a good originating in Canada or
Mexico within the meaning of General Note 12, HTSUS.
(g) Claim for free entry under Chapter 98, Subchapter XIII, HTSUS
may be made for articles of any character described therein which have
been previously entered under any other provision of law and the entry
amended accordingly upon compliance with the requirements of this
section, provided the articles have not been released from Customs
custody, or even though released from Customs custody if it is established that the original entry was made on the basis of a clerical error, mistake of fact, or other inadvertence within the meaning of section 520(c)(1), Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and was brought to the attention of the Customs
Service within the time limits of that section. If an entry is so
amended, the period of time during which the merchandise may remain in
the Customs territory of the United States under bond shall be computed
from the date of importation. In the case of articles covered by an
informal mail entry, such a claim may be made within a reasonable time
either before or after the articles have been released from Customs
custody.
(h) After the entry and bond have been accepted, the articles may be
released to the importer. The entry shall not be liquidated as the
transaction does not involve liquidated duties. However, a TIB importer
may be required to file an entry for consumption and pay duties, or pay
liquidated damages under its bond for a failure to do so, in the case of
merchandise imported under subheading 9813.00.05, HTSUS, and
subsequently exported to Canada or Mexico (see Sec. 181.53 of this
chapter).

Sec. 10.104 Temporary importation entries for United States Government agencies.
The entry of articles brought into the United States temporarily by
an agency or office of the United States Government and claimed to be
exempt from duty under Chapter 98, Subchapter XIII, Heading 9813,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), shall be made
on Customs Form 7501. No bond shall be required if the agency or office
files a stipulation in the form set forth in Sec. 141.102(d) of this
chapter. In those cases in which the provisions of Chapter 98,
Subchapter XIII, HTSUS (19 U.S.C. 1202), are not met, however, the port
director will proceed as if a bond had been filed to cover the
particular importation. Articles temporarily imported by a Government
agency or office under this section are entitled to immediate delivery
under the procedures set forth in Sec. 10.101.

Subpart E_Presentation of Entry Papers
Sec. 141.61 Completion of entry and entry summary documentation.
(a) Preparation. (1) Entry and entry summary documentation shall be
prepared on a typewriter, or with ink, indelible pencil, or other
permanent medium. The entry summary shall be signed by the importer (see
Sec. 101.1 of this chapter). Entries, entry summaries, and accompanying
documentation shall be on the appropriate forms specified by the
regulations and shall set forth clearly all required information. All
copies shall be legible.
(2) An importer may omit from entry summary, Customs Form 7501, the
marks and numbers previously provided for packages released or
withdrawn.
(b) ``Signing of the entry''. The signing of the consignee's
declaration on the entry summary for merchandise entered for
consumption, for warehouse, or for temporary importation under bond, in
accordance with Sec. 141.19, shall be regarded as the ``signing of the
entry'' required by section 484(d), Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19
U.S.C. 1484(d)). For a rewarehouse or a bonded manufacturing warehouse entry,
the signing of the consignee's declaration on the entry documentation
shall satisfy 19 U.S.C. 1484(d).
(c) Identification number for merchandise subject to an antidumping
or countervailing duty order. The entry summary filed for merchandise
subject to an antidumping or countervailing duty order shall include the
unique identifying number assigned by the Department of Commerce,
International Trade Administration. Any entry summary filed for
merchandise subject to an antidumping or countervailing duty order not
containing the identifying number shall be rejected.
(d) Importer number. The importer number shall be reported on
Customs Form 7501 as follows:
(1) Generally. Except as provided in paragraph (d)(2) of this
section, the importer number of the importer of record and the consignee
number of the ultimate consignee shall be reported for each entry
summary and for each drawback entry. When the importer of record and the
ultimate consignee are the same, the importer number may be entered in
both spaces provided on Customs Form 7501 (boxes 10 and 12) or the
importer number may be entered in the space provided for the importer
(box 12) and the word ``SAME'' may be entered in the space provided for
the ultimate consignee (box 10).
(2) Exception. In the case of a consolidated entry summary covering
the merchandise of more than one ultimate consignee, the importer number
shall be reported on Customs Form 7501 (box 12) and the notation
``CONSOLIDATED'' shall be made in the space provided for the consignee
number (box 10).
(3) When refunds, bills, or notices of liquidation are to be mailed
to agent. If an importer of record desires to have refunds, bills, or
notices of liquidation mailed in care of his agent, the agent's importer
number shall be reported on Customs Form 7501 in the box designated
``Reference No'' (box 22). In this case, the importer of record shall
file, or shall have filed previously, a Customs Form 4811 authorizing
the mailing of refunds, bills, or notices of liquidation to the agent.
(4) Broker No. If a broker is used, the broker's number shall be
reported in the appropriate location on Customs Form 7501.
(e) Statistical information--(1) Information required on entry
summary or withdrawal form--(i) Where form provides space--(A) Single
invoice. For each class or kind of merchandise subject to a separate
statistical reporting number, the applicable information required by the
General Statistical Notes, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTSUS), shall be shown on the entry summary, Customs Form 7501;
the transportation entry and manifest of goods, Customs Form 7512, when
used to document an incoming vessel shipment proceeding to a third
country by means of an entry for transportation and exportation, or
immediate exportation.
(B) Multiple invoices. If a class or kind of merchandise from the
same country of origin subject to the same statistical reporting number
is included in more than one invoice, the importer may, at his option
(1) list each invoice separately on the appropriate form listed under
paragraph (e)(1)(i)(A) of this section and for each class or kind of
merchandise within each invoice subject to a separate statistical
reporting number, report the applicable information required by the
General Statistical Notes, HTSUS; or (2) combine the information for
each class or kind of merchandise and report it under one statistical
reporting number for all invoices. When consolidating information from
several invoices under one reporting number, a worksheet itemizing the
entered value of the merchandise from each invoice in the manner
prescribed in paragraph (f)(2)(ii) of this section shall be attached to
the appropriate form.
(ii) Where form does not provide space. In addition to the
information required by paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this section, statistical
information for which spaces are not provided on the appropriate form,
shall be shown as follows:
(A) The name, the abbreviated designation or 4 digit code of the
country of registry (flag) of the vessel expressed in terms of Annex B,
HTSUS, shall be placed in the block on the entry document for the name of the importing vessel or carrier.
(B) The notation ``Y'' or ``N'' as appropriate, shall be placed in
column 33 of Customs Form 7501, and in the top right hand portion of
Customs Form 7519, to identify the transaction as one between a buyer
and a seller who are related in any manner, or as one between a buyer
and a seller who are not so related.
(C) The charges (aggregate cost of freight, insurance and all other
charges), shall be listed on Customs Form 7501 in column 33. The charges
shall be listed on Customs Form 7519 in the rate column.
(2) Responsibility. The person filing the form is responsible for
providing the information required by paragraph (e)(1) of this section.
If the information required by subparagraph General Statistical Note
1(a)(xiv)(xvii), HTSUS, cannot be obtained readily, the person filing
the form shall provide reasonable estimates of the required information.
The acceptance of an estimate for a particular transaction does not
relieve the person filing the form from obtaining the necessary
information for similar future transactions. The port director may
require additional documentation to substantiate the statistical
information required by paragraph (e)(1) of this section. The importer
shall give an appropriate bond for the production of the required
documentation, as follows:
(i) Except for merchandise entered for warehouse, the documentation
shall be produced within 50 days after the entry summary (or the entry,
if there is no entry summary) is required to be filed.
(ii) If merchandise is entered for warehouse, the documentation
shall be produced within 2 months after the date of withdrawal, except
that if an invoice is part of the documentation, the invoice shall be
produced within 50 days after the entry summary for warehouse is
required to be filed. The port director may grant a reasonable extension of time to produce the required documentation for good cause shown. (See Sec. 141.91(d) for bond requirements relating to failure to produce an invoice.)
(3) Estimates of statistical information. When the person filing the
form estimates any of the values or charges, as provided for in General
Statistical Note 1(b)(ii), HTSUS, except Canadian rail and truck
charges, he shall place either ``(estimate)'', ``(est)'', or (``E'')
after the amount of each value or charge.
(4) Rejection of form. The port director shall reject a form for
failure to provide required statistical information if the information
is omitted or if the information provided clearly appears on its face,
or is known to the Customs officer, to be erroneous.
(5) Penalty procedures; when not invoked. Penalty procedures
relating to erroneous statistical information shall not be invoked
against any person who in good faith attempts to comply with the
statistical requirements of the General Statistical Note, HTSUS.
(f) Value of each invoice--(1) Single invoice. If the entry, entry
summary, or withdrawal documentation, as specified in paragraph
(e)(1)(i) of this section, covers a single invoice, the invoice
information shall be restated to show:
(i) Gross amount of the invoice;
(ii) Deduction of the aggregate amount of any non-dutiable charges
involved in the amount;
(iii) Further deduction of the aggregate of any deductions from the
invoice values to make entered values; and
(iv) Addition of the aggregate of any dutiable charges not included
in the gross amount of the invoice and of any other additions to the
invoice values to make entered values. The final amount in the summary
computations shall represent the aggregate of the entered values of all
the merchandise covered by the invoice. The required information shall
be shown on a worksheet attached to the form or placed across columns 30
and 31 on Customs Form 7501 and in the same general location on Customs
Forms 7505, 7506.
(2) Multiple invoices. (i) If the importer or his agent elects the
first option specified in paragraph (e)(1)(i)(B) of this section, the
information required to be restated by paragraph (f)(1) of this section
for a single invoice shall be restated for each invoice. The required
information shall be shown on a worksheet attached to the form or placed across columns 30 and 31 on Customs Form 7501.
(ii) If the importer or his agent elects the second option specified
in paragraph (e)(1)(i)(B) of this section, the information required to
be restated by paragraph (f)(1) of this section for a single invoice
shall be restated for each invoice. The final amount in the summary
computation shall represent the aggregate of the entered values of all
the merchandise on each of the multiple invoices. The required
information shall be shown on an attached worksheet.
(iii) The worksheet also shall contain:
(A) A statistical reporting number restatement for the merchandise
from each invoice subject to the same statistical reporting number from
the same country of origin, and
(B) An aggregate total value which represents the entered value.
(iv) To permit the identification of the merchandise entered under
each reporting number, each class or kind of merchandise, from one
country reported under a single statistical reporting number shall be
coded identically on each invoice and on the worksheet.
