Does the shipper documentation need to change?
Yes. While the textile declaration is no longer required, the new required complete name and address information of the manufacturer must be included on the shipper documentation in order to assemble the MID for declaration on the Customs entry. Accurate information for the name and address of the manufacturer is critical. If the contents of the shipment were produced by more than one manufacturer, each must be reported, with details of quantities for each manufacturer. In addition, the shipper should take care to ensure that the commercial invoice contains all required information for these commodities, as specified in the U.S. Customs regulations. Additional information may also be required to determine the proper tariff classification for the Customs entry. General invoice requirements and specific information for certain commodities can be found in the U.S. Customs regulations at 19 CFR 141.86 and 141.89.
