                        TITLE 19--CUSTOMS DUTIES

 

   CHAPTER I--BUREAU OF CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION, DEPARTMENT OF 

        HOMELAND SECURITY; DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY (CONTINUED)

 

PART 141_ENTRY OF MERCHANDISE--Table of Contents

 

         Subpart B_Right To Make Entry and Declarations on Entry

 

Sec.  141.15  Bond for production of bill of lading or air waybill.



    (a) When appropriate. If the person desiring to make entry is unable 

to present a bill of lading, air waybill, or other evidence of right to 

make entry in accordance with Sec.  141.11, the port director may accept 

a bond for the production of a bill of lading or air waybill under the 

provisions of section 484(c), Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 

1484(c)). The bond shall be for the production of a bill of lading or 

air waybill, unless the person making entry intends to produce a 

carrier's certificate or certified duplicate bill of lading or air 

waybill. In that case, no bond is required because section 484(c) does 

not apply to entries made on a carrier's certificate or certified 

duplicate bill of lading or air waybill. If the port director is in 

doubt as to the propriety of accepting entry on a bond for the 

production of a bill of lading or air waybill, he shall request 

authority to do so from the Commissioner of Customs.

    (b) Form. The bond shall be on Customs Form 301 and contain the bond 

conditions set forth in Sec.  113.69 of this chapter.

    (c) Documents acceptable to satisfy bond. A bond given for the 

production of a bill of lading or air waybill shall be considered as 

canceled upon production of a bill of lading or air waybill, and may be 

considered as satisfied but shall not be canceled upon the production of 

a carrier's certificate or certified duplicate bill of lading or air 

waybill.
