Page 84: Entry of Vessels from Foreign Ports.

Sec. 128. It shall not be lawful to make entry of any ship or vessel, which may arrive from any foreign port, within the United States, or of the cargo on board, elsewhere then at one of the ports of entry established by law, nor to unlade the said cargo, or any part thereof, elsewhere than at one of the designated ports of delivery; but every port of entry shall also be a port of delivery. Act March 2, 1799, Sec. 18.

Sec. 129. The master or commander of every vessel bound to a port of delivery, only, in any of the following districts, to wit, — Portland and Falmouth, except the ports of North Yarmouth, Freeport, and Harpswell; Bath, except the ports of Georgetown and Brunswick; Newburyport, New London; Middletown, except the ports of Lyme, Saybrook, Killingsworth, Haddam, and East Haddam; Norfolk and Portsmouth; Bermuda Hundred, (now Petersburg,) or City Point, Yorktown, Tappahannock, except the port of Urbanna; or Edenton, — shall first come to, at the port of entry of such district, with his ship or vessel, and there make report and entry in writing, and pay, or secure to be paid, all legal duties, port fees, and charges, in manner provided by this act, before such ship or vessel shall proceed to her port of delivery; and any ship or vessel bound to a port of delivery in any district other than those above mentioned, or to either of the ports of delivery above mentioned, may first proceed to her port of delivery, and afterward make report and entry within the time by this act limited.

Page 116: Footnote 2: The remaining provisions of this act are so far superseded by the provisions of the warehouse laws that it is deemed unnecessary to reproduce them here. Under the regulations of the department for carrying into effect these laws, foreign merchandise may be entered for warehousing at any port of entry, and transported under bond to any one of the designated interior ports.

Page 123: Sec. 203. Examination and appraisement to be made at port of importation. — The revenue laws require that, in all cases of importation of merchandise, the examination and appraisement of the same shall take place at the first port of entry; at which port, also, the actual quantity must be ascertained by weighing, gauging, or measuring, as the case may be, and the amount of duties ascertained and paid, or secured to be paid. Gen. Reg. Art. 330.

Page 136: Sec. 229. Duties on goods destroyed by fire or other casualty, while in warehouse or in course or transportation under bond, may be abated. — The Secretary of Treasury shall be, and he is herby, authorized, upon production of satisfactory proof to him of the actual injury or destruction, in whole or in part, of any goods, wares, or merchandise, by accidental fire or other casualty, while the same remained in the custody of the officers of the customs in any public or private warehouse under bond, or in the appraiser’s stores undergoing appraisal, in pursuance of law or regulations of the treasury department, or while in transportation under bond from the port of entry to any other port in the United States, to abate or refund, as the case may be, out of any moneys in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, the amount of impost duties paid or accusing thereupon; and likewise to cancel any warehouse bond or bonds, or enter satisfaction thereon in whole or in part, as the case may be.

Page 149: Sec. 267. Transportation to interior ports. — To facilitate the transmission of merchandise in bond form a port of entry to any interior port of delivery, the importer of any goods, wares, or merchandise, residing at such interior port of delivery, may produce his invoice to the surveyor of the interior port, take the oath or oaths required by law, and execute the transportation bond before the surveyor of said port, who shall certify the sufficiency of the same, and transmit the bond to the collector of the port of importation; and the bond so taken shall be as valid and binding as though executed in the office of the collector where the entry shall be made. The invoice, with the oath attached, may be transmitted by the importer to his agent or attorney at the port where the goods are expected to arrive, who, upon their arrival, shall present the transportation entry, with bill or bills of lading therefor; whereupon the same proceedings shall be had as in other entries for transportation under bond from one port to another in the United States. Gen. Reg. Art. 471.

Page 283: Footnote: In all cases where imports subject to duty are seized for a violation of the revenue and collection laws, as the right to duties accrues to the United States on the arrival of the merchandise within the limits of a port of entry with intent to unlade the same, the legal duties must be collected and retained in the treasury, whether the merchandise be decreed forfeited or not. Merchandise fraudulently invoiced may be seized and forfeited, though the duties have been paid, and the goods delivered to the importer. Gen. Reg. Art. 866.
