What Is a Bill Of Entry?

Post by elison00 »

hello
A bill of entry is a formal declaration describing goods which are being imported or exported. The bill of entry is examined by customs officials to confirm that the contents of a shipment conform with the law, and to determine which taxes, tariffs, and restrictions may apply to the shipment. This document must be prepared by the importer or exporter, with many companies hiring a clerk specifically to handle the process of preparing bills of entry.

Thanks
