Sec.  123.25  Certification and disposition of manifests.



    (a) Certification. Conveyances proceeding under the provisions of 

this subpart shall not proceed until the Customs inspector has certified 

the in-transit manifest or verified its certification by the carrier. 

The port director may require the carrier to execute the certificate as 

an alternative to certification by the Customs officer. When the carrier 

is to execute the certificate, and the merchandise will be forwarded 

without being under Customs seals, the agent of the carrier shall 

carefully examine the packages covered by the manifests to satisfy 

himself that the merchandise agrees with the manifest as to quantity and 

description.

    (b) Disposition of manifest. The original manifest, after 

certification, shall accompany the merchandise. Additional copies 

required when the merchandise is to be transshipped in Canada or Mexico 

under Customs supervision shall be given to the person in charge of the 

conveyance for delivery to the Customs officers who will supervise 

transshipment.
