~~== Reporting Arrivals Using Container Number ==~~

{{#ev:youtube|-79R_5J9ml8|360|right|How to arrive in-bond shipments}}

~~Another option is~~ to report the arrival of a specific container on an in-bond~~, using the container number. For in-bonds that have multiple containers, this notifies CBP that only a portion of the in-bond has arrived at the destination port~~.

The '''Send Container Arrival Page''' in BorderConnect’s [https://www.borderconnect.com/us-in-bond-manager/index.htm U.S. In-Bond Manager] allows carriers to electronically report the arrival of a specific container associated with an in-bond shipment.

~~To arrive by container, you can select that option under Send WP Request on the In-Bond Report Details Page, or select that option from under the U.S. In-Bonds menu.~~

This method is designed for situations where:

When ~~arriving the~~ in-bond by container, ~~all~~ the ~~fields are the same as described above, expect~~ the ~~Master~~ Bill of Lading ~~and~~ Container Number fields ~~are added~~. The ~~master bill~~ of ~~lading number is~~ the bill of lading ~~number that~~ the container ~~is associated with, and~~ the container ~~number is~~ the one ~~that you wish~~ to ~~arrive on~~ the in-bond~~. When arriving by~~ container ~~from the~~ in-bond report, the ~~master bill of lading number field will be pre~~-~~filled~~.

* An in-bond includes multiple containers

* Only part of the shipment arrives at the destination port

* CBP requires container-level arrival confirmation

When an in-bond consists of a single container, it is generally easier to use '''Arrive Entire In-Bond''' instead.

The Container Arrival option can be accessed:

* From the top menu: '''U.S. In-Bonds → Arrive Container'''

* From an in-bond report: Select '''Arrive Container''' within the Bill of Lading Details section

Launching from the in-bond report automatically fills in key shipment details.

== When to Use Container Arrivals ==

{| class="wikitable"

! Scenario

! Recommended Action

|-

| Multiple containers on one in-bond

| Arrive by Container Number

|-

| Partial freight arrives

| Arrive by Container Number

|-

| Single container in-bond

| Arrive Entire In-Bond

|}

== Completing a Container Arrival ==

[[File:arrive-container.png|800px|center]]

The majority of fields match a standard in-bond arrival message, with two additional container-specific identifiers.

=== Key Fields ===

;In-Bond Entry Number

:The CBP in-bond reference number. Must be nine numeric digits with no spaces or special characters. Automatically populated when launched from the in-bond report.

;U.S. In-Bond Destination

:The CBP port where the container arrived. Must match the original in-bond destination.

;FIRMS Code

:The CBP facility where the container physically arrived. Port of exit facilities appear first when applicable.

;In-Bond Arrival Date

:The actual arrival date of the container. Must not be in the future and should be reported within two business days.

;In-Bond Arrival Time

:The arrival time of the container at the destination port.

;Master Bill of Lading

:The bill of lading associated with the container. Auto-filled when arriving from the in-bond report.

;Container Number

:The container being reported as arrived. This identifies the specific portion of the in-bond movement.

== Submitting the Arrival ==

After reviewing the information:

# Click '''Send In-Bond Arrival Message to CBP'''

# Status changes to '''Transmitted'''

# CBP typically responds within one to two minutes

# The container arrival appears in the in-bond report history

== Visual Example of Arrival Options ==

! In-Bond Structure

! Best Arrival Method

|-

| One in-bond with three containers

| Arrive each container individually

|-

| One in-bond with one container

| Arrive Entire In-Bond

|}

== Best Practices ==

* Use container arrivals only for partial shipments

* Verify FIRMS codes carefully

* Send a status query before arrival when possible

* Monitor report history for CBP acceptance

== Summary ==

The Container Arrival feature provides precise CBP reporting when in-bond shipments arrive in multiple containers or stages. Using this method helps maintain compliance, prevents delays, and ensures accurate in-bond closure.
