Practical Exercise

October 2024 — Question 19

Echo experienced high demand in the U.S. for its paper products and could not manufacture quickly enough to meet its customers’ demands. Echo imported into Canada uncoated paper product like the paper manufactured by Echo from a manufacturer in Australia. Echo relabeled the boxes from the Australian manufacturer to show Echo’s information and exported the paper to the U.S. NBB filed the entry/entry summary as if Echo manufactured the paper. During a routine warehouse inspection, sixty (60) days after the date of import, a CBP Officer and a CBP Import Specialist see the country of origin marking of Australia and research the entry number. The Import Specialist rejects the entry type 01 consumption entry for failure to report and pay antidumping (AD) duties. The rejection puts the entry summary into Trade control status. How and when can NBB best respond on behalf of Echo?
