PART 18--TRANSPORTATION IN BOND AND MERCHANDISE IN TRANSIT--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 18.10a  Special manifest.

    (a) General. Merchandise for which no other type of bonded movement 
is appropriate (e.g., prematurely discharged or overcarried merchandise 
and other such types of movements whereby the normal transportation-in-
bond procedures are not applicable) may be shipped in bond from the port 
of unlading to the destination shown on the importing carrier's manifest 
(manifested port) when authorized by the port director having custody of 
the merchandise. For this purpose, Custom's Form 7512 prepared in 
quadruplicate shall be used as a special manifest.
    (b) Manifest procedures. (1) Written application shall be made to 
the port director where the merchandise is being held for permission to 
return it as a bonded shipment under a special manifest to the 
manifested port, including to the port of diversion (see section 4.33 of 
this chapter), when different from the original manifested port.
    (2) The application and accompanying completed Customs Form 7512 
shall identify the prematurely discharged or overcarried merchandise on 
the inward manifest of the importing carrier; and also identify the date 
and entry number of any entry made at the manifested port covering the 
merchandise to be returned, if known. If the port director is satisfied 
that the merchandise will be delivered to Customs custody at the 
manifest port before expiration of 90 days from the date of the entry 
identified, or 90 days from the date of the importing carrier's arrival 
at the manifested port when no entry is identified, the port director 
may approve the shipment under a special manifest.
