Entry / Entry Summary · ACE entry summary data and business rules
Merchandise is arriving from Ontario, Canada and is known to be country of origin Ontario, Canada. On May 15, 1997, the International Organization for Standardization ("ISO ") country code for goods of Canadian origin was replaced by the Canadian Province Code. However, under six conditions, "CA" remains an acceptable ISO code. Based on the entry summary information provided below, which does NOT correctly display "CA" as the country of origin in lieu of "XO," the code for the province of Ontario?
- B)
- D)
Show the answer and walk-through
CBP's answer: B. B:
The ES instructions say CA is not reported as the country of origin for Canadian goods (use the province code, XO for Ontario) except in listed cases, which include withdrawals from warehouses for consumption (type 31, form D), entries of goods from Foreign Trade Zones into U.S. commerce (type 06, form A) and informal entries (type 11, form C). Form B shows entry type 07, which is not one of the listed conditions, so it does not correctly show CA (B).
