manifest on Customs Form 7512.

    (d) Baggage cards--(1) Baggage arriving from Mexico. For baggage 

arriving at a port on the Mexican border for in-transit movement through 

the United States in bond and return to Mexico, the in-transit baggage

    (2) Baggage arriving from Canada. For baggage arriving at a port on

baggage card, Customs Form 7512-B (Canada 8\1/2\) or Customs Form 7533-C 

(Canada A4-\1/2\), shall be used. The baggage card will be filled out 

and securely attached to the baggage and the attachment verified by a 

Canadian Customs officer before the baggage leaves Canada. If the joint 

in-transit baggage card is found to be improperly prepared or attached 

upon arrival of the baggage in the United States for movement in bond, 

the carrier may be required to furnish the baggage card described in 

Sec.  18.14 of this chapter for attachment to the baggage before being 

allowed to proceed. At the port of exit from the United States the joint 

in-transit baggage card shall be allowed to remain on the baggage.
