Abstract: The collection of the information on the ``Create/Update
Importer Identity Form'', commonly referred to as ``CBP Form 5106,'' is
the basis for establishing bond coverage, release and entry of
merchandise, liquidation and the issuance of bills and refunds. Members
of the trade community use the Create/Update Importer Identification
Form to register an entity as an Importer of Record (IOR) in the
Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). Registering as IOR with CBP is
required if an entity intends to transact Customs business and be
involved as an importer, consignee/ultimate consignee, any individual
or organization involved as a party, such as 4811 party, or sold to
party on an informal or formal entry. The number used to identify an
IOR is either an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Employer Identification
Number (EIN), a Social Security Number (SSN), or a CBP-Assigned Number.
By collecting, certain information from the importer enables CBP to
verify the identity of the importers, meeting IOR regulatory
requirements for collecting information. 19 CFR 24.5.
Importers (each person, business firm, government agency, or other
organization that intends to file an import entry) shall file CBP Form
5106 with the first formal entry or request for services that will
result in the issuance of a bill or a refund check upon adjustment of a
cash collection. This form is also filed for the ultimate consignee for
whom an entry is being made.
CBP Form 5106 is authorized by 19 U.S.C 1484 and 31 U.S.C. 7701 and
provided for by 19 CFR 24.5. The current version of the form is
accessible at: CBP Forms [verbar] U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

5106).
