The template lists those items that are required to be filed no later than 24 hours before the shipment is loaded on the vessel.

In addition to the template information, we must have the COMMERCIAL INVOICE so that Supply Chain Shipping can classify the invoice with the proper HTS number.

1. The master and/or the house bill of lading numbers as filed through the AMS Advanced Manifest filing are required. US Customs will use these numbers to match the 10+2 data with the AMS filing

2. The seller, buyer manufacturer ship to party and country of origin information is required to be filed no later than 72 hours before loading.

3. The Container stuffing location and the consolidator/forwarder can be filed 72 hours before loading but if this information is not available at that time then filing may be delayed until anytime between loading and 72 hours before arrival in the United States.

Supply Chain Shipping, LLC, and its related entities, will make every attempt to file ISF documents in a timely and compltete manner but does not warrant or assume any legal liability for the accuracy, timeliness or completeness of any work process or missing importer, damages will be for the importers account.
