In-Bond
An in-bond movement lets imported goods travel under bond from the port of arrival to another port for entry or export, before duty payment.
What does In-Bond mean?
An in-bond movement takes goods from the port of arrival to another port, or out of the country, before entry and payment of duty. A bonded carrier transports the goods (19 CFR 18.1).
The main types are immediate transportation (IT), transportation and exportation (T&E) and immediate exportation (IE). Their entry type codes are 61, 62 and 63.
The in-bond application goes to CBP electronically. Except for barge moves, the goods must reach the destination or export port within 30 days. The days count from arrival or from CBP's movement authorization, whichever is later.
At the destination, the goods are entered or exported. Goods that no one enters within 15 calendar days after arrival at the destination go to general order (19 CFR 4.37, 122.50).
What does it mean for your shipment?
Ask for an in-bond move when the goods arrive at one port but must clear at another. We file IT, T&E and IE in-bonds and close them at the destination.
