Overview of This Information Collection
Title:
OMB Number: 1651-0001.
Form Number: 1302, 1302A, 7533, 7509.
Current Actions: Extension.
Type of Review: Extension.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Abstract:
Import Vessel Manifest:
CBP Form 1302: The master or commander of a vessel arriving in the
United States from abroad with cargo on board must file CBP Form 1302,
Inward Cargo Declaration, or submit the information on this form using
a CBP-approved electronic equivalent. CBP Form 1302 is part of the
manifest requirements for vessels entering the United States and was
agreed upon by treaty at the United Nations Inter-government Maritime
Consultative Organization (IMCO). This form and/or electronic
equivalent, is provided for by 19 CFR 4.5, 4.7, 4.7a, 4.8, 4.33, 4.34,
4.38. 4.84, 4.85, 4.86, 4.91, 4.93 and 4.99 and is accessible at:
<a href="https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms?title=1302">https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms?title=1302</a>.
Although the form has been mostly automated through the Automated
Commercial Environment (ACE), there are still circumstances where a
paper CBP form 1302 is required due to not being captured in ACE; Such
as the data elements for equipment of the vessel which is intended for
discharge or empty containers being transported coastwise. CBP is
working to automate the remaining use cases of the CBP form 1302
through the Vessel Entrance and Clearance System (VECS). Some data
elements may be collected via the Electronic Notice of Arrival/
Departure (eNOAD), however, the eNOAD system does not have all of the
data elements on CBP Form 1302. This form is not required to be
submitted in hard copy for cargo brought to the United States with the
intent to import and/or carry onboard in trade but is required for
ship's equipment which is intended for discharge.
CBP Form 7533: The master or person in charge of a conveyance files
CBP Form 7533, INWARD CARGO MANIFEST FOR VESSEL UNDER FIVE TONS, FERRY,
TRAIN, CAR, VEHICLE, ETC, which is required for a vehicle or a vessel
of less than 5 net tons arriving in the United States from Canada or
Mexico, otherwise than by sea, with baggage or merchandise. Respondents
may also submit the information on this form using a CBP-approved
electronic equivalent. CBP Form 7533, and/or electronic equivalent, is
provided for by 19 CFR 123.4, 123.7, 123.61, 123.91, and 123.92, and is
accessible at: <a href="https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms?title_1=7533">https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms?title_1=7533</a>.
Vessel Stow Plan: For all vessels transporting containerized goods
to the US the incoming carrier is required to electronically submit a
vessel stow plan no later than 48 hours after the vessel departs from
the last foreign port that includes information about the vessel and
cargo. For voyages less than 48 hours in duration, CBP must receive the
vessel stow plan prior to arrival at the first port in the United
States. The vessel stow plan is provided for by 19 CFR 4.7c.
Container Status Messages (CSMs): For all containers destined to
arrive within the limits of a U.S. port from a foreign port by vessel,
the incoming carrier must submit messages regarding the status of
events if the carrier creates or collects a container status message
(CSM) in its equipment tracking system reporting that event. CSMs must
be transmitted to CBP via a CBP-approved electronic data interchange
system. These messages transmit information regarding events such as
the status of a container (full or empty); booking a container destined
to arrive in the United States; loading or unloading a container from a
vessel; and a container arriving or departing the United States. CSMs
are provided for by 19 CFR 4.7d.
Importer Security Filing (ISF): For most cargo arriving in the
United States by vessel, the importer, or its authorized agent, must
submit the data elements listed in 19 CFR 149.3 via a CBP-approved
electronic interchange system within prescribed time frames outlined in
19 CFR 149.2. Transmission of these data elements provide CBP with
advanced information about the shipment.

CBP Form 1302A: The master or commander of a vessel departing from
the United States must file CBP Form 1302A, Cargo Declaration Outward

filling at least 24 hours prior to the conveyance departing the final
U.S. port of export. The remaining EEM data elements must be provided
at least two hours prior to a conveyance departing a U.S. port of
export. This advance information is transmitted to CBP via the ACE's
Export Information System. This information is transmitted to CBP in
advance via the ACE's Export Information System.

Air Cargo Advance Screening (ACAS): Respondents submit a subset of
the required 19 CFR 122.48a data elements (ACAS Data) at the earliest
point practicable prior to loading of the cargo onto the aircraft

(1) Air waybill number
(2) Total quantity based on the smallest external packing unit
(3) Total weight of cargo
(4) Cargo description
(5) Shipper name and address
(6) Consignee name and address

Previously Approved Changes to ACAS:
Through the Enhanced ACAS interim final rule (IFR), CBP has amended
its regulations to include additional data elements. The ACAS program
enhances the security of flights carrying cargo into the United States
by requiring the transmission of certain air cargo data and performing
targeted risk assessments based on the transmitted data prior to an
aircraft's departure for the United States. These risk assessments
identify and prevent high-risk air cargo from being loaded onto an
aircraft that could pose a risk to an aircraft during flight. In
addition to the original ACAS data elements, Enhanced ACAS adds several
mandatory and conditional data elements.
These additional data elements consist of:
(1) Consignee email address (mandatory)
(2) Consignee phone number (mandatory)
(3) Shipment packing location and/or scheduled shipment pickup location
(mandatory)
(4) Ship to party (mandatory)
(5) Verified Known Consignor (conditional, mandatory in specific
circumstances)
(6) Shipper email address (conditional, mandatory in specific
circumstances)
(7) Shipper phone number (conditional, mandatory in specific
circumstances)
(8) Customer account name (conditional, mandatory in specific
circumstances)
(9) Customer account issuer (conditional, mandatory in specific
circumstances)
(10) Customer account number (conditional, mandatory in specific
circumstances)
(11) Customer account shipping frequency/volume (conditional, mandatory
in specific circumstances)
(12) Customer account establishment date (conditional, mandatory in
specific circumstances)
(13) Customer account billing type (conditional, mandatory in specific
circumstances)
(14) Unmasked internet protocol (IP) address or media access control
(MAC) address of the device used during account creation (conditional,
mandatory in specific circumstances)
(15) Unmasked internet protocol (IP) address or media access control
(MAC) address of the device used to initiate the shipping transaction
and the unmasked IP address or MAC address of the device used to file
the ACAS filing each time an ACAS filing is submitted (conditional,
mandatory in specific circumstances)
(16) Shipping cost (conditional, mandatory in specific circumstances)
(17) Biographic data (conditional, mandatory in specific circumstances)
(18) Link to product listing and unmasked internet protocol (IP)
address or media access control (MAC) address of the device used by the
consignee to purchase the product (conditional, but mandatory in
specific circumstances)
In tandem with the Enhanced ACAS interim final rule, CBP is also
adding to the existing list of optional data elements that the public
may provide at their discretion. CBP does not require trade members to
provide this data.
The list of optional data elements consists of:
(1) Origin of Shipment
(2) Declared Value
(3) Harmonized Commodity Code (HTS-6 or HTS-10)
(4) Transaction Type (e.g., B2B--business to business; B2C--business to
consumer, etc.)
(5) Special Handling Type
(6) Customer Account Email Address
(7) Customer Account Phone Number
(8) Shipper Manufacturer Identification (MID) or Authorized Economic
Operator (AEO) Number
