Customs and Border Protection's Bond Program; Correction

AGENCY:  U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland 
Security.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) published in the 
Federal Register of November 13, 2015, a final rule amending CBP's bond 
regulations. In that rule, CBP amended the regulation prescribing bond 
and rider filing requirements and stated, in the preamble, that the 
agency's intent was to provide additional time for the filing of these 
documents prior to their effective date. Due to a drafting error, one 
of the provisions inadvertently provides for a more restrictive time 
frame for filing a continuous bond, associated application, or rider 
prior to their effective date. This document corrects that provision to 
conform it to CBP's stated intent to liberalize the bond and rider 
filing process.

DATES: Effective on March 22, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kara Welty, Revenue Division, Office 
of Administration, Customs and Border Protection, Tel. (317) 614-4614.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 13, 2015, U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection (CBP) published in the Federal Register (80 FR 
70154), as CBP Dec. 15-15, a final rule amending title 19 of the Code 
of Federal Regulations (19 CFR) regarding CBP's bond regulations. In 
that document, CBP amended 19 CFR 113.26(a), which pertains to when 
bonds and riders must be filed prior to their effective date, to 
provide that ``A continuous bond, and any associated application 
required by Sec.  113.11 or a rider, must be filed at least 60 days 
prior to the effective date requested for the continuous bond or 
rider.''
    Prior to the amendments effectuated by CBP Dec. 15-15, Sec.  
113.26(a) permitted filing of a bond or rider up to 30 days before the 
bond's effective date. CBP's intent, as stated in the preamble to CBP 
Dec. 15-15 at pages 70156 and 70160 of the November 13, 2015, Federal 
Register document, was to liberalize Sec.  113.26(a) to allow the 
filing of bonds and riders up to 60 days prior to the bond's effective 
date. This document corrects 19 CFR 113.26(a) to clarify that bonds and 
riders may be filed up to 60 days prior to the effective date requested 
for the continuous bond or rider.

List of Subjects in 19 CFR Part 113
