Procedure for the transfer of goods between bonded warehouses

EIT-API Transfer Guidelines

1. The Customs Broker submits the Transfer request, with the complete information in 3 copies (Annex I) to the API Receiving Precinct, accompanied by (BL revalidated in the name of the Customs Broker requesting the transfer).
2. The receiving site API will assign the FAT number that will correspond to the consecutive number of the transfer. This FAT number will be composed of the following data:
   Example: FAT-078-0001-09
3. Once the FAT number has been assigned, the API receiving site signs and stamps the Transfer request in all the corresponding numbers. The EIT departure site stamps and signs the numbers (all the numbers must have the stamps of each site).
4. Once the transfer has been accepted upon request, the EIT exit site will transfer the funds electronically.
5. Once the API receiving facility electronically confirms the transfer to the customs agency, the movement between facilities can be physically performed.
6. Before the container enters the API bonded warehouse, the data recorded in the application will be physically reviewed.
   1. If the information does not match or is inaccurate, entry into the bonded warehouse will be cancelled and the customs office will be informed of the anomalies presented.
   2. In the event of a documentary and physical match, the container will be admitted, the EIR will be prepared and a place will be assigned within the enclosure for its subsequent handling.
