A. Unless covered by a warehouse entry, articles in examination packages that have not been exported, destroyed, or properly marked by the importer within 30 days shall be sent to general order (GO) stores for disposition.

B. An imported article, which is not a good of a North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) or United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) country, that is used in the U.S. in manufacture which results in an article having a name, character, or use differing from that of the imported article, will be within the principle of the decision in the case of United States v. Gibson-Thomsen Co., Inc., 27 C.C.P.A. 267 (C.A.D. 98). These articles are considered substantially changed by the manufacturer and do not require country of origin marking at the time of importation. However, the outermost containers of the imported articles shall be properly marked.

C. Unless excepted by law, the English name of the country of origin of an article of foreign origin imported into the U.S. shall be marked in a conspicuous place as legibly, indelibly, and permanently as the nature of the article will permit, at the time of importation into the Customs territory of the U.S.

D. All marking requirements applicable to articles of foreign origin imported directly from a foreign country into the U.S. apply to similar articles of foreign origin that are imported into a U.S. possession outside its Customs territory and reshipped to the U.S.

E. Without additional time allowed by the Center director, if an importer does not properly mark or redeliver all merchandise previously released to the importer within 45 calendar days from the date of the notice of redelivery, the port director shall demand payment of liquidated damages incurred under the bond in an amount equal to the entered value of the articles not properly marked or redelivered.
