FROM : DIRECTOR, CARGO CONTROL AND ENTRY
SUBJECT : DUPLICATE REPORTING OF ENTRY SUMMARY DATA TO CENSUS
PASS TO : IMPORT SPECIALISTS, ENTRY SPECIALISTS, INSPECTORS,
AND OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES SUCH AS BROKERS AND
IMPORTERS
BACKGROUND:
THE BUREAU OF THE CENSUS CONTINUES TO RECEIVE PAPER STATISTICAL
COPIES OF CF 7501S FOR ENTRY SUMMARY DATA TRANSMITTED THROUGH
ABI. CENSUS GENERATES PERIODIC, LENGTHY LISTINGS OF ENTRY
SUMMARIES REPORTED THROUGH ABI FOR WHICH PAPER STATISTICAL COPIES
WERE ALSO SUBMITTED BY ABI FILERS. SUCH DUPLICATE REPORTING
ADVERSELY IMPACTS THE PROCESSING OF STATISTICAL INFORMATION BY
CENSUS.
CUSTOMS DIRECTIVE 3560-01 DATED FEBRUARY 7, 1989, CLEARLY STATES
THAT A PAPER STATISTICAL COPY OF THE CF 7501 IS NOT TO BE
SUBMITTED IN ADDITION TO THE ABI ENTRY SUMMARY DATA. STATISTICAL
COPIES SHOULD BE SUBMITTED ONLY FOR NON-ABI ENTRY SUMMARY
DOCUMENTS (BOTH WAREHOUSE AND CONSUMPTION) WITH LINE ITEM VALUES
EXCEEDING $1,250 AND TEXTILE SHIPMENTS REGARDLESS OF VALUE EXCEPT
PROPERLY MARKED COMMERCIAL SHIPMENTS OF TEXTILES VALUED AT $250
OR LESS.
ACTION:
ENTRY FILERS SHOULD BE REMINDED NOT TO SUBMIT PAPER STATISTICAL
COPIES OF CF 7501S FOR WHICH ABI ENTRY SUMMARY HAS BEEN
TRANSMITTED.
IMPORT SPECIALISTS, ENTRY PERSONNEL, AND INSPECTORS SHOULD REMOVE
ANY STATISTICAL COPIES OF CF 7501S FOR ABI ENTRY SUMMARIES. DO
NOT FORWARD THESE PAPER STATISTICAL COPIES OF CF 7501S TO THE
CENSUS PROCESSING CENTER IN JEFFERSONVILLE, INDIANA. THESE PAPER
STATISTICAL COPIES SHOULD BE RETURNED TO THE ABI FILER WITH A
COPY OF THIS INSTRUCTION.
