October 2022 — Question 6
ABC Customs Brokers, LLC (ABC) is filing entry at the port of unlading. What port code will ABC enter on the entry / entry summary for the port in which the entry is filed?
- A1801
- B1803✓ CBP's answer
- C2022
- D3220
- E3780
Why this answer
Entry is made at the port where the merchandise is unladen, and the port code reported on the entry and entry summary comes from the Schedule D list of CBP ports maintained under the cited port-organization regulation and the ACE instructions. In this exercise the port of unlading is Jacksonville, Florida, whose Schedule D code is 1803, so B is keyed. Option A, 1801, is the tempting distractor because it shares the district 18 prefix, but it is Tampa, a different Florida port; the remaining codes belong to ports elsewhere entirely, so matching the exact port rather than the district decides the question. Watch for: Stopping at the district level and picking 1801, Tampa, another district 18 port.
