Cross-border e-commerce sellers who regularly handle U.S. import customs clearance must master the skills of filling out CBP Form 7501! This entry summary document is the U.S. Customs' "proof of identity" for imported goods, and filling it out correctly has a direct bearing on whether or not the goods can be cleared through customs.
The Privacy Act Statement section makes it clear that CBP requires this information to identify merchandise entering U.S. commerce and to record the amount of tariffs. This information may be shared with government agencies to assist in the investigation of violations. Failure to provide this information will prevent CBP from enforcing its regulatory requirements.
Did you know that The first entry number consists of three parts: a 3-digit Declarant Code, a 7-digit Entry Number and a 1-digit Check Digit. There is a specific formula for calculating the check digit, see Appendix 1 for details. 2. The entry type is even more critical as it determines how the shipment will be processed, ranging from Consumer Entry (01-08) to Temporary Import (23).
There is simply no shortage of important information to fill in the form to ensure the smooth clearance of goods. Item 13, Manufacturer's ID (MID), is the most error-prone section and is constructed according to specific rules, including elements such as the country code and the first few letters of the manufacturer's name. In particular, Canadian origin goods are required to use the province code rather than the country code "CA".
What is quite remarkable is that correctly filling in the 33rd column of the Visa Number/Certificate of Conformity/Export Certificate can speed up the customs clearance process considerably. This section has a strict format and must contain the year of export, ISO country of origin and a unique number issued by the foreign government.
