How does the carrier transmit the SCAC and number combination to CBP?
The carrier will provide this information to the Customhouse broker (or other ABI filer) in sufficient time to allow for electronic transmission to CBP 1 hour (or 30 minutes for FAST shipments) in advance. For PAPS shipments, this information is required to be placed on the manifest (CBP 7533) and invoice in a bar coded format for presentation to CBP at the time of arrival. • What if a carrier does not have a SCAC code or is crossing for the first (or only) time? Commercial carriers that infrequently cross the border should still request a SCAC code and use it for border crossings as described above. On a limited case by case basis, CBP may allow first time or one time commercial carriers to arrive and release shipments without using a SCAC code. CBP Officers will be exercising enforcement discretion in making these case by case determinations. Examples of this may include but are not limited to: • One time importers bringing commercial goods for their own use. • Commercial shipments c
