Sec.  10.36a  Vehicles, pleasure boats and aircraft brought in for 

repair or alteration.



    (a) A vehicle (such as an automobile, truck, bus, motorcycle, 

tractor, trailer), pleasure boat, or aircraft brought into the United 

States by an operator of such vehicle, pleasure boat, or aircraft for 

repair or alteration (as defined in Sec. Sec.  10.8, 10.490 and 181.64 

of this chapter) may be entered on the operator's baggage declaration, 

in lieu of formal entry and examination, and may be passed under 

subheading 9813.00.05, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(HTSUS), at the place of arrival in the same manner as passengers' 

baggage. When the vehicle, aircraft, or pleasure boat to be entered is 

being towed by or transported on another vehicle, the operator of the 

towing or transporting vehicle may make entry for the vehicle, aircraft 

or pleasure boat to be repaired or altered. The bond, prescribed by 

Sec.  10.31(f), filed to support entry under this section shall be 

without surety or cash deposit except as provided by this paragraph and 

paragraph (d) of this section. The examination may be made by an 

inspector who is qualified to determine the amount of such bond to be 

filed in support of the entry. The privilege accorded by this paragraph 

shall not apply when two or more vehicles, pleasure boats, or aircraft 

are to be entered by the same importer under subheading 9813.00.05, 

HTSUS, at the same time. In that event, the importer must file a formal 

entry supported by bond with surety or cash deposit in lieu of surety.

    (b) Each vehicle, pleasure boat, or aircraft to which paragraph (a) 

of this

section is applicable shall be identified on the operator's baggage 

declaration, which must include the data prescribed in paragraphs (a) 

and (e) of Sec.  10.31.

    (c) Exportation shall be effected in accordance with the provisions 

of Sec.  10.38.

    (d) The privilege of clearance of a vehicle, pleasure boat, or 

aircraft brought in by the operator of such vehicle, pleasure boat, or 

aircraft, for repair or alteration on his baggage declaration under bond 

without surety or cash deposit shall not be granted to an individual who 

has failed to comply with the provisions of such a bond in connection 

with any prior arrival. Such individual shall be required to file a 

formal entry under subheading 9813.00.05, HTSUS, with a bond supported 

by a surety or cash deposit in lieu of surety.
