Show the answer and walk-through

CBP's answer: B. B: The country of origin of cargo is required data on the commercial invoice under 19 CFR 141.86.

Section 141.86(a) lists what a commercial invoice must show, and item (10) is the country of origin of the merchandise. That makes B true. The country of origin is not set by the port of departure, so D is wrong.

The country of origin of the merchandise 19 CFR 141.86(a)(10)
