Security Deposits
|
|
|
All
Carnets require a security deposit, 40% of the value of the General List.
Road
vehicles covered by a Carnet require 100% security for corporations or 150%
if the Holder is an individual, and all vehicles visiting China require a
minimum of 100% Security deposit.
|
|
|
CASH
|
Certified checks and money orders
made payable to USCIB (minimum $100).
|
|
|
SURETY BOND
|
Surety bonds may be
obtained through Carnet HQ or from any of the 200 companies authorized by the U.S.
Treasury Department, admitted in New York State, and have an A.M. Best rating of A- or better. Bond premiums
are typically 1% of the bond amount
($50.00 minimum premium may apply).
|
|
|
REFUNDABLE CLAIM DEPOSIT (RCD)
|
In lieu of a cash deposit, federal,
state, and local government agencies may remit an RCD of $250 per Carnet. The
RCD is in addition to the Basic Fee and should be remitted at the time of
payment. Agencies submitting an RCD
must also complete the Application for Waiver of Security.
Beginning January 1, 2010 only Federal
entities will be eligible for RCDs.
|
|
|
WRITTEN AGREEMENT
|
Available to USCIB members only
through December 31, 2009. Beginning January 1, 2010 a new program goes into
effect for select members.
|
|
|
Cash
deposits and RCDs are returned in full. Surety bonds are terminated once the
original Carnets have been returned for cancellation and
no claims are anticipated by Carnet HQ. While Carnets are good for up to one
year, if a claim arises, it may be necessary to hold the security deposit
until the claim is resolved.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Payments
|
|
|
Payment for all Carnet services may be made in the form of
a check or money order payable to USCIB, or credit card (up to $1000 on Visa,
AmEx, or MasterCard).
|
|
|
Power of Attorney
|
|
|
If a customs broker, freight forwarder
or agent is preparing the application on behalf of a Carnet holder, a Power
of Attorney must accompany this application.
Please contact your service provider for a Power of Attorney form.
