Subpart D--Exemptions from the Requirements for the Filing of Shipper's 
                           Export Declarations
 
Sec. 30.50  Procedure for shipments exempt from the requirements for Shipper's Export Declarations.


    Except as provided below, where an exemption from the requirement 
for the filing of a Shipper's Export Declaration is provided in this 
subpart, a notation describing the basis for the exemption shall be made 
on the bill of lading, air waybill, or other loading document for 
carrier use, with a reference to the number of the section in this part 
where the particular exemption is provided so that the carrier at the 
time of lading, and the Customs Director at the time of exportation, may 
verify that no declaration is required. If none of the above named 
documents is used, the person transporting the merchandise must be 
prepared to identify to the Customs Director at the port of exportation, 
at the time of exportation but prior to departure, any merchandise which 
is exempt from the requirement for the filing of a Shippers' Export 
Declaration and explain to the Customs Director the basis for the 
exemption. Where shipments are exempt from the requirement for Shipper's 
Export Declarations on the basis of value and destination, the 
appearance of the value and destination on the bill of lading, air 
waybill, or other loading document for carrier use, shall be acceptable 
as evidence of the exemption, and no reference need be made to the 
particular section of these regulations where the exemption is provided.
