IT / T & E / IE 7512 P re se n te d b y: M e rit T re m p e r Directives and Pipelines • Customs and Border Protection Directive 3240-036A Dated August 7, 2003. • Chicago District Pipeline No 99-04 Dated January 1999 • Chicago District Pipeline 94-19 Dated August 10, 1994 • Procedures for Issuance of In-Bond Numbers by Ports see Chicago District Pipeline 02-05 Dated January 18, 2002 • No Paper CBPF 7512 for In-Bonds Filed via ACE #1 Reject from CBP on 7512’s The IT date used on the left side of your 7512 must be the actual arrival date of the shipment. Do not use the carriers IT date. What does this mean? Let’s discuss it. See pipeline 04-34 paragraph 6 dated December 8, 2004 Brokers should not arrange for pick-up based on a paperless release or perforated copy of an entry if the carrier has not transmitted their AMS data. CBP is concerned with instances in which filers transmit a date of arrival prior to the actual date of arrival. Filers should exercise reasonable care in order to ensure this information is accurate. In the case of rail shipments, the IT date is rarely, if ever, the estimated date of arrival into the U.S. The carrier usually provides the filer (or notify party) with an estimated date of arrival into the U.S. If the carrier does not provide this information, contact the carrier and request it. In addition, most containerized freight imported by rail can be tracked via the rail carriers’ websites. With regard to air shipments, it is understood that in many cases the carrier is unable to fit the merchandise on the plane, resulting in split shipments. However, in almost all cases, as least some of the merchandise arrives on the original ETA. Hence, there should be very few instances of entries transmitted with incorrect ETAs. CBP has begun tracking entries that are incorrectly prefiled. Filers who continually transmit incorrect estimated dates of arrival may face corrective action, including penalties for failure to use reasonable care, negligence or fraud, depending upon how egregious the violation.
