In this document, CBP is soliciting comments concerning the following information collection: Title: Declaration of Unaccompanied Articles. OMB Number: 1651–0030. Form Number: CBP Form 255. Abstract: CBP Form 255, Declaration of Unaccompanied Articles, is completed by travelers arriving in the United States with a parcel or container which is to be sent from an insular possession at a later date. It is the only means whereby the CBP officer, when the person arrives, can apply the exemptions or five percent flat rate of duty to all of the traveler’s purchases. A person purchasing articles in American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, or the Virgin Islands of the United States receives a sales slip, invoice, or other evidence of purchase which is presented to the CBP officer along with CBP Form 255, which is prepared in triplicate. The CBP officer verifies the information, indicates on the form whether the article or articles were free of duty, or dutiable at the flat rate. Two copies of the form are returned to the traveler, who sends one form to the vendor. Upon receipt of the form the vendor places it in an envelope, affixed to the outside of the package, and clearly marks the package ‘‘Unaccompanied Tourist Shipment,’’ and sends the package to the traveler, generally via mail, although it could be sent by other means. If sent through the mail, the package would be examined by CBP and forwarded to the Postal Service for delivery. Any duties due would be collected by the mail carrier. If the shipment arrives other than PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 through the mail, the traveler is notified by the carrier when the article arrives. Entry would be made by the carrier or the traveler at the customhouse. Any duties due would be collected at that time. CBP Form 255 is authorized by Sections 202 & 203 of Public Law 95– 410 and provided for 19 CFR 148.110, 148.113, 148.114, 148.115 and 148.116.
