U.S. Customs 24-Hour Rule

The 24-hour rule requires sea carriers and NVOCCs(Non-Vessel Operating Common Carriers) to provide U.S. Customs with detailed descriptions of the contents of sea containers bound for the United States 24 hours before a container is loaded on board a vessel. The rule allows U.S. Customs officers to analyze the container content information and identify potential terrorist threats before the U.S.-bound container is loaded at the foreign seaport, not after it arrives in a U.S. port.

This new 24-hour rule requiring advance cargo manifests from sea carriers went into effect December 02, 2002. Under the new rule, Customs have granted sea carriers a 60-day grace period to fully implement the program.

Enforcement efforts focused on significant violations of the cargo description requirements of the 24-hour rule. For example, the use of such vague cargo descriptions as "Freight-All-Kinds," "Said-To-Contain," or "General Merchandise," are no longer acceptable.

Customs has posted a "Frequently Asked Questions" (FAQs) section on its Web site (http://www.customs.gov/) to assist carriers, NVOCCs, and others in understanding the expectations of the U.S Customs Service concerning the 24-hour rule.
