Abstract: Subheading 9803.00.50 of

U.S.C. 1202, provide for the release
without entry or the payment of duty of
certain substantial holders or containers
pursuant to the provisions of 19 CFR
10.41b.
19 CFR 10.41b eliminates the need for
an importer to file entry documents by
instead requiring, among other things,
the marking of the containers or holders
to indicate the HTSUS numbers that
provide for duty-free treatment of the
containers or holders.
For U.S. manufactured serially
numbered holders or containers which
may be released without entry or the
payment of duty under 9801.00.10
HTSUS, 19 CFR 10.41b(c) requires the
owner to place the following markings
on the holder or container: 9801.00.10,
HTSUS (unless the holder or container
has a permanently attached metal tag or
plate showing, among other things, the
name and address of the U.S.
manufacturer); the name of the owner;
and the serial number assigned by the
owner. For serially numbered holders or
containers of foreign manufacture for
which may be released without entry or
payment of duty under 9803.00.50
HTSUS, 19 CFR 10.41b(d) requires the
owner to place markings containing the
following information: 9803.00.50
HTSUS; the district and port code
numbers of the port of entry; the entry
number; the last two digits of the fiscal
year of entry covering the importation of
the holders and containers on which
duty was paid; the name of the owner;
and the serial number assigned by the
owner.
This collection of information applies
to the importing and trade community
which is familiar with import
procedures and with the CBP
regulations.
Type of Information Collection:
Holders/Containers Entering U.S. DutyFree.

20.
