Following CBLE question is the focus of this video:

In regard to “prohibited or restricted importations” relative to “articles involved in unfair competition,” after the U.S. International Trade Commission (the Commission) issues an exclusion order pursuant to 19 USC § 1337, an importer of record has the following option with respect to the entry of merchandise subject to that exclusion order:

A. The importer may enter merchandise subject to an exclusion order if the importer’s basic importation bond contains a provision authorizing such action.

B. The importer may enter merchandise subject to an exclusion order for thirty days after the exclusion order issues, at which point the Commission’s exclusion order becomes final and entry is no longer permitted.

C. Until the time the Commission’s exclusion order becomes final, the importer may enter merchandise subject to the exclusion order by filing a single entry bond with CBP in an amount determined by the U.S International Trade Commission to be sufficient to protect the complainant from any injury.

D. Until the time the Commission’s exclusion order becomes final, the importer may enter merchandise subject to the exclusion order by filing a single entry bond with CBP in an amount set by the port director to ensure compliance with the customs and related laws.

E. None of the above because an exclusion order is effective on the date it is issued and merchandise subject to that exclusion order cannot be entered lawfully after this point.
