Sec.  142.47  Examinations of Line Release transactions.



    (a) General. Merchandise imported under Line Release generally may 

be released without further Customs processing. Customs, however, may 

choose to inspect any Line Release shipment. Examinations may be either 

specifically ordered by the Customs officer or random.

    (b) Voiding of Line Release Transaction. Customs may void a Line 

Release transaction for the following reasons: Because of an 

examination, because a carrier transporting the Line Release merchandise 

is not a participant in the Land Border Carrier Initiative Program 

(LBCIP), or because a driver or conveyance is not authorized in 

accordance with the LBCIP. If this occurs, Customs will return the 

invoice to the carrier, and the entry filer, in order to enter 

merchandise, shall prepare and submit either a CF 3461 or 3461 

Alternate.
