In this document CBP is soliciting
comments concerning the following
information collection:
Title: Holders or Containers which
Enter the United States Duty Free.
OMB Number: 1651–0035.
Form Number: None.
Abstract: All articles that are brought
into the United States are subject to
duty unless they are specifically exempt
under the Harmonized Tariff Schedules
of the United States (HTSUS), codified
as 19 U.S.C. 1202. Item 9801.00.10
(HTSUS) provides that articles that were
manufactured in the U.S. and exported
and returned without having been
advanced in value or improved in
condition by any process of

PO 00000

Frm 00061

manufacture may be brought back into
the U.S. duty-free. In addition, Item
9803.00.50 (HTSUS) provides for the
duty-free entry of substantial holders or
containers of foreign manufacture if
duty had been paid upon a previous
importation pursuant to the provisions
of 19 CFR 10.41b.
Although an article may be brought
back into the United States without
being subject to duty, a consumption
entry must nevertheless be made along
with the reason for the article not being
subject to duty set forth on the entry.
However, an importer who brings in
merchandise packed in U.S.
manufactured containers or holders or
previously duty-paid containers or
holders, and does so several times a year
involving a great many containers or
holders, may mark the container or
holder with the HTSUS number in lieu
of filing of entry papers each time. CBP
believes such frequent filing of entry
papers for these containers or holders
would be overly burdensome to the
importer or shipper.
19 CFR 10.41 provides that
substantial holders or containers are to
have prescribed markings in clear and
conspicuous letters of such a size that
they will be easily discernable. Section
10.41b of the CBP regulations eliminates
the need for an importer to file entry
documents by instead requiring the
marking of the containers or holders to
indicate under which item number of
the HTSUS the containers or holders are
entitled duty free entry.
In order to comply with 19 CFR
10.41b, the owner of the holder or
container is required to place the
markings on a metal tag or plate
containing the following information:
9801.00.10, HTSUS; the name of the
owner; and the serial number assigned
by the owner. In the case of serially
numbered holders or containers of
foreign manufacture for which free
clearance under the second provision of
item 9803.00.50 HTSUS is claimed, the
owner must place the following
markings containing the following
information: 9803.00.50 HTSUS; the
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.
Action: CBP proposes to extend the
expiration date of this information
collection with no change to the burden
hours or to the information collected.
Type of Review: Extension (without
change).
Affected Public: Businesses.
