  CHAPTER I--UNITED STATES CUSTOMS SERVICE, DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
 
PART 144--WAREHOUSE AND REWAREHOUSE ENTRIES AND WITHDRAWALS--Table of Contents
 
                  Subpart D--Withdrawals from Warehouse
 
Sec. 144.32  Statement of quantity; charges and liens.

    (a) On each withdrawal. Each withdrawal filed shall have indicated 
thereon, preferably in the lower part of the left-hand margin if there 
is no space designated on the form for such information, a summary 
statement of the account to which it is related. The statement shall 
indicate:
    (1) The quantity (i.e., the number of outer containers, or tons, 
etc.) in the warehouse account before the withdrawal;
    (2) The quantity being withdrawn; and
    (3) The quantity remaining in warehouse after the withdrawal. The 
quantity in each instance may be shown as a cumulative total event 
though it may include a group of varied units such as boxes, cases, or 
cartons, and may consist of more than one commodity, such as distilled 
spirits, chinaware, etc.
    (b) Transferred merchandise. When all or a portion of an original 
lot has been transferred to a new owner in accordance with subpart C of 
this part, each withdrawal by the transferee shall show only the 
quantity on hand in the transferee's name before the withdrawal, the 
quantity being withdrawn by the transferee, and the transferred quantity 
remaining in the warehouse after the withdrawal. The quantity retained 
by the original importer and the quantity transferred shall be treated 
as separate accounts.
    (c) Charges and liens. Upon receipt of an application to withdraw 
merchandise the appropriate Customs officer shall determine whether 
there are any cartage, storage, labor, or any other charges due the 
Government in connection with the goods remaining unpaid or whether 
there is on file any notice of lien filed by a carrier. If there are no 
charges or liens or all charges and liens have been satisfied, and all 
other requirements of law or regulations have been met, the application 
to withdraw shall be approved.
