(a) Time limit. Merchandise may be withdrawn from warehouse for transportation to another port of entry if withdrawal for consumption or exportation can be accomplished at the port of destination before the expiration of the warehousing period. (b) Physical deposit in warehouse not needed. All or any part of the merchandise covered by a entry summary, Customs Form 7501 may be withdrawn for transportation without deposit in a bonded warehouse and may be permitted to remain on the vessel or other vehicle or on the pier in a constructive warehouse status pending examination. When any such merchandise not deposited in a warehouse is not forwarded under the withdrawal for transportation on account of damage or other cause, the importer shall be required to withdraw such merchandise immediately for consumption or exportation, or designate a warehouse to which it may be sent and, upon his failure to do so, it shall be treated as unclaimed. (c) Form. (1) A withdrawal for transportation shall be filed on Customs Form 7512 in five copies. An extra copy or copies of the Customs Form 7512 may be required for use in connection with the delivery of the merchandise to the bonded carrier and, in the case of alcoholic beverages, two extra copies shall be required for use in furnishing the duty statement to the port director at destination. [[Page 73]] (2) Separate withdrawals for transportation from a single warehouse, via a single conveyance, consigned to the same consignee, and deposited into a single warehouse, can be filed on one Customs Form 7512, under one control number, provided that there is an attachment, to be certified by a Customs officer, providing the information for each withdrawal, as required in paragraph (d) of this section. With the exception of alcohol and tobacco products, this procedure shall not be allowed for merchandise which is in any way restricted (for example, quota/visa). (3) The requirement that a Customs Form 7512 be filed and the information required in paragraph (d) of this section be shown shall not be required if the merchandise qualifies under the exemption in Sec. 144.34(c).

In addition to the statement of quantity required by Sec. 144.32, Customs Form 7512 shall show the following information for the merchandise being withdrawn: (1) The original entry number, date of entry, date of entry summary, and port at which filed; (2) The name of the consignee at the port of destination; (3) Any ascertained weight, gauge, or measure; (4) The entered value of the merchandise; (5) Estimated duties, if any; (6) A statement that the merchandise is or is not admissible for consumption and the reason for non-admissibility, if applicable; and (7) The statistical information required by Sec. 141.61(e) of this chapter.

No separate invoice or extract from the original invoice shall be required to cover such samples. (f) Forwarding procedure. The merchandise shall be forwarded in accordance with the general provisions for transportation in bond (Secs. 18.1 through 18.8 of this chapter). However, when the alternate procedures under Sec. 144.34(c) are employed, the merchandise need not be delivered to a bonded carrier for transportation, and an entry for transportation (Customs Form 7512) and a rewarehouse entry will not be required.
