The BOC Blast 217 – US CBP – Amendments to U.S. Custom and Border Protection (CBP) In-Bond Movements

US CBP – Amendments to U.S. Custom and
Border Protection (CBP) In-Bond Movements

Please take note of a recent CBP amendment that applies to shipments moving in-bond into, or through, the US.
The new revision stipulates that cargo moving In-Bond in the U.S. must contain a 6-digit level Harmonize Tariff Schedule of the United States number (HTSUS) on the Bill of Lading.
NOTE: although the revision only applies to in-bond movements, many steamship lines are now starting to require the 6-digit HTS to be on the BL for all shipments.
This mandatory ruling took effect on November 27, 2017, with a 60 day informed compliance period during which time penalties will not be issued for non-compliance.
After January 27, 2018, US CBP may issue penalties for missing HTS codes on In-Bond Shipments and/or reject the in-bond request until the HTS code is provided.
To stay compliant, please ensure all BL data for cargo discharging at a USA port includes the HTS code in the HS Code field.
For more information, please visit CBP’s website at: https://www.cbp.gov/news/changes-bond-process-0
If you have any questions, please contact your BOC Representative. Thank you.

1,065-foot container ship breaks free from Boston terminal

BOSTON – A container ship broke free from a terminal in Boston, the Coast Guard confirmed early Wednesday morning.

The 1,065-foot ship “Helsinki Bridge” was at the Paul W. Conley Container Terminal when the 12 lines securing the vessel broke.

Terminal workers who were on the ship were able to get off, and no injuries were reported.

The Coast Guard caught up to the ship and brought it to Broad Sound, where it was anchored.

The ship will eventually be towed back to the terminal.
