Initials:

Enter your initials. This field has become mandatory for creation of entries and other functions.

(1) Entry No.:

This number is created from your reference number as a base and calculates the correct check digit. You may also enter your own number. Detailed instructions concerning the entry number are contained in Customs Directive 3500-08, dated June 19, 1986, (Customs), and Customs Directive 3500-058, dated September 10, 1991. An entry number, in this format, is required on all broker/importer prepared informal (which require a CF 7501) and warehouse entries. NOTE: If for some reason the entry number is incorrect. Clear out the field and let the computer recreate it based on your reference.

(2) Entry Type:

Select the appropriate entry type code by selecting the two digit code for the type of entry summary being filed. The first digit of the code identifies the general category of the entry (i.e., consumption =0, informal =1, warehouse =2, etc.). The second digit further defines the specific processing type within the entry category. Therefore, a consumption quota entry should be recorded under code 02, an informal free or dutiable entry under code 11, etc.

The record copy of the entry summary will be time stamped by the filer at the time of presentation of the entry summary. In the case of entry summaries submitted on an ABI Statement, only the statement is required to be time stamped.

This block should not be printed or typed prior to presentation of the entry/entry summary. Use of this field is optional for ABI statement entries.

Last Inv. No

Enter the last invoice number sequence to avoid extra questions at the end of entry.

(4) Entry Date:

Record the six digit numeric code: month, day, and year (MMDDYY). Normally, it is the date the goods are released except for immediate delivery, quota goods, or where importer/broker requests another date prior to release (see 19 CFR 141.68). It is the responsibility of the filer to ensure that the entry date shown for entry/entry summaries is the date of presentation (i.e., the time stamp date). NOTE: This date is needed to calculate the pay date.

(5) Port Code:

Enter the four digit numeric code of the U.S. port where the merchandise was entered under an entry or released under an immediate delivery permit or use the look up to select a port code. . U.S. port codes can be found in Annex C of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule.

(6) Bond No.:

Record the three digit numeric code that identifies the surety company on the bond. This code number can be found in block #7 of the Customs Form 301/Customs Bond. This code number is also available through ACS to ABI filers, via the importer bond query transaction. For U.S. Government importations and entry types not requiring surety, the code 999 should appear in this block. When cash or Government securities are used in lieu of surety, use code 998. This is the customers bond number and should not be changed.

(7) Bond Type:

This is the customers bond type and should not be changed. Record the single digit numeric code as follows:

0 - U.S. Government or entry types not requiring a bond
8 - Continuous
9 - Single Transaction
Bond type "0" should be used in conjunction with surety code "999" for government entries secured by stipulation cited in C.R. 10.101(d).
Bond type "8" or "9", as appropriate, should be used in conjunction with surety code "998" when cash or government securities are deposited in lieu of surety.
Bond type "9" should be used in conjunction with surety code "999" when surety has been waived in accordance with C.R. 142.4 (c).

If the contents of the shipment are destined to more than one state or if the entry summary represents a consolidated shipment, report the state of destination with the greatest aggregate value. If, in either case, this information is unknown, the state of the ultimate consignee, or the state where the entry is filed, in that order, should be reported. However, before either of these alternatives are used, a good faith effort should be made by the entry filer to ascertain the state where the imported merchandise will be delivered. In all cases, the state code reported should be derived from the standard postal two-letter state or territory abbreviation. The reporting of the ultimate state of destination was made mandatory for all entry summaries and entry/entry summaries filed on or after July 1, 1991.

(10) Consignee No.:

Record the IRS, Social Security, or Customs assigned number of the consignee. This number must reflect a valid identification number filed with Customs via the CF 5106 or its electronic (ACS) equivalent.

A "line number" refers to a commodity from one country, covered by a line which includes a net quantity, entered value, HTS number, charges, and rate of duty and tax. However, some line numbers may actually include more than one HTS number and value. For example, many items found in Chapter 98, of the HTS require a dual HTS number. Articles assembled abroad with American components require the HTS number 9802.00.80 along with the appropriate reporting number of the provision in chapters 1 through 97. Also, many items in chapter 91 of the HTS require as many as four HTS numbers. Watches classifiable under subheading 9101.11.40, for example, require that the appropriate reporting number and duty rate be shown separately for the movement, case, strap, band or bracelet and the battery. A separate line number is required for each commodity which is the subject of a Customs binding ruling.

C/X	The country of export
C/O	The country of origin
Tariff No.	Record the appropriate HTS 10-digit numbers. You are responsible for keeping your tariff database up to date. See Tariff queries for more information. Right click for special options.

Col2	If a country is subject to Column 2 Rates (1930 rate) it will appear a two here. This will be pulled from the Country of Origin master. If a country is an LDDC country (Lesser Developed) it may pull an “E” or another Special Program indicator here.
Tariff Sub.	Particular tariffs often require a “Dual” or substitute tariff to be transmitted along with it. This is where that number would be entered. ***See Additional Tariffs Required Section for more on these.
Visa #	Record the letter "V" followed by the visa number for each line of merchandise as it appears on the document with the visa if the products are exported from a country with a textile visa system as noted in the Customs Service "Status Reported on Current Import Quotas (Restraint Levels)." Certain countries, as designated in the "Visa Footnotes" section of the report, use standardized visa numbers. The standardized number consists of nine alpha/numeric characters in the following format: NXXNNNNNN. The first character is the last digit of the year of exportation of the merchandise from the country of origin. The second and third characters are the two letter ISO code of the country of origin (Appendix C). The last six characters are the six digit visa number as shown on the visa document. For example, for merchandise exported from the Peoples Republic of China (the PRC or, as shown in Appendix C, China (Mainland)), exported in 1991 from the PRC, with visa number 123456, the standardized visa number would be 1CN123456. In this example, the standardized visa number would begin with "1" even though the merchandise was subsequently shipped through Hong Kong but not exported from Hong Kong until 1992. Only one Visa number may apply to a single line. If a line has merchandise covered by more than one visa, then separate lines must be provided for each Visa number. When textile merchandise is subject to quota, the date of exportation from the origin country must be reported in addition to the date of exportation from the country of exportation (in accordance with the textile regulations, 19 C.F.R.12.130-1). It will be reported in column 34, under the visa number, if applicable, for each line number affected. Date of exportation from the exporting country will continue to be reported in block 14.

A whole number with the two low-order positions containing zeros is mandatory when a category number is associated with the tariff number.
2^nd	Same as above, a second statistical factor if necessary.
IRT	This is I.R. Tax as may be required by US Customs. It is usually pulled from the Tariff Classification. There are instances on Tobacco and Alcohol that manual I.R. Tax may need to be calculated.

FEE	This is where the total of the Tax fee rate appears for this particular classification. E. OTHER FEES In the event there is any other fee, charge or exaction not enumerated above, record the rate in this column and identify each fee, charge or exaction across columns 30, 31, and 32 and on the same line as such rate. Examples include the beef fee, honey fee, pork fee, cotton fee, harbor maintenance fee (HMF), sugar fee, and merchandise processing fee (MPF). All fees, with the exception of the HMF, are to be reported at the line item level.

There is a de minimis on the HMF if this is the only payment due on the entry summary and the total amount of HMF is $3 or less. When this is the case, the grand total user fee in the block 39 summary should be reported as the total fee amount of all line items, but the amount in box 39 itself should be reported as $0.00. Pursuant to Article 403 of the United States- Canada Free Trade Agreement (CFTA), the Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF) assessment shall be reduced 20 percent per year, until it is zero, on goods originating in the territory of Canada. This reduced MPF will be available only to those goods which meet the rules of origin criteria outlined in chapter three of the CFTA. To obtain the reduced MPF, the importer must claim it on the CF 7501. If the HTS number has the symbol "CA" indicated in the special duty rate column and the importer claims "CA" as a SPI, then the reduced MPF and the special duty rate are applicable. The reduced user fee also applies to those HTS numbers for which "CA" is not shown as an SPI, provided the merchandise meets the rules or origin criteria of the CFTA. In order to obtain the reduced user fee in those instances, prefix the HTS number with the symbol "CA". If the special duty rate column contains a "B" or both a "B" and "CA" and the importer wishes to claim the benefits of the "B" and the reduced MPF, precede the HTS number with the symbol "B#". If the special duty rate column contains a "C" or both a "C" and "CA" and the importer wishes to claim the benefits of the "C" and the reduced user fee, precede the HTS number with the symbol "C#"

Effective July 1, 1989, record charges for shipments arriving in the U.S. by ALL modes of transportation. For overland shipments from Canada or Mexico, foreign inland freight will be reported as charges. This value shall be shown in whole numbers for each HTS item number beneath the entered value and identified with the letter "C" (e.g. C550). Dollar signs should be omitted. Charges are required for each line item valued over $1250, and in certain special cases for each line item valued over $250.
