Export Bill of Lading Page (U.S. In-Bond Manager)

This article is part of the BorderConnect U.S. In-Bond Manager Guide and the BorderConnect Software User Guide

The Export Bill of Lading Page is a page in BorderConnect U.S. In-Bond Manager used to electronically report an in-bond export to CBP. This page can be accessed by hovering over 'U.S. In-Bonds' and selecting 'Export Bill of Lading' or by selecting 'Export Bill of Lading' from the Bills of Lading Section of the In-Bond Report Details Page. It is easier to complete from the in-bond report if possible, because this pre-fills some of the fields for you. For a more detailed guide on arriving and exporting in-bond shipments visit the Reporting In-Bond Arrivals and Exports Guide.

Reporting In-Bond Exports Using Bill of Lading

It is also possible to report the export of one portion of an in-bond, using the bill of lading number. For in-bonds that have multiple bills of lading, this notifies CBP that only a portion of the in-bond has been exported from the U.S. For in-bonds that have only a single bill of lading, this is effectively the same as exporting the entire in-bond, so it's recommended to use that option instead.

To export by bill of lading, 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.

When exporting the in-bond by bill of lading, all the fields are the same as described above, expect the Master Bill of Lading field is added. This is the bill of lading number that you wish to export on the in-bond. When exporting by bill of lading from the in-bond report, this field will be pre-filled.
