SUBJECT: TBT-97-039 - AMENDMENT TO HARMONIZED FACT SHEET 30,
DATED MAY 24, 1989
REFERENCE: CANCELING AND CORRECTING TBT-97-021 TO INCLUDE HTS
NUMBERS 9813.00.10 AND 9813.0020 AS REQUIRING THE
SUBMISSION OF A FORMAL ENTRY FOR COMMERCIAL SHIPMENTS ONLY,
REGARDLESS OF VALUE (19 CFR 143.22).
BACKGROUND:
ON MAY 24, 1989, U.S. CUSTOMS PROVIDED A LIST OF TARIFF
NUMBERS THAT REQUIRED A FORMAL ENTRY REGARDLESS OF VALUE
BECAUSE OF QUOTA-VISA CONCERNS AND ANOTHER LIST OF HTS NUMBERS
IN WHICH A FORMAL ENTRY WAS REQUIRED BECAUSE OF LEGISLATIVE
REQUIREMENTS. SOME OF THESE HTS NUMBERS MAY APPEAR IN BOTH
LISTS, AND IN THOSE CASES THE REQUIREMENT FOR FORMAL ENTRY
REGARDLESS OF VALUE WILL TAKE PRIORITY. THE FOLLOWING IS AN
UPDATE OF THIS ORIGINAL LIST.
ACTION:
1) THE FOLLOWING HTS NUMBERS WILL REQUIRE FORMAL ENTRY
IF VALUED IN EXCESS OF $250 (19 CFR 143.21A).
3901.10.0010 - 4304.00.0000
5001.00.0000 - 6704.90.0000
9401.10.4000 - 9406.00.8090
9903.04.05 - 9904.52.50
2) THE FOLLOWING HTS NUMBERS REQUIRE THE SUBMISSION OF A
FORMAL ENTRY FOR COMMERCIAL SHIPMENTS ONLY, REGARDLESS
OF VALUE (19 CFR 143.22). FOR THESE TARIFF NUMBERS, "
FREIGHT CHARGES" ARE REQUIRED ONLY FOR LINE ITEMS VALUED
OVER $250.
