What if there are no G.O. warehouses located in a port?
Certain ports do not have active G.O. warehouses. In this instance, merchandise would be held under constructive G.O. at the carriers’ premises. In this case, the NVOCC would notify CBP of the presence of unentered merchandise and notify the carrier that the shipment is under constructive G.O. Questions regarding the G.O. process may be directed to Timothy Sushil at (202) 927-0564 or TIMOTHY.SUSHIL@customs.treas.
