Customs Bonds are in place to ensure the Principal abides by all U.S. laws and the regulations specified in Title 19, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Subpart G of Part 113. The obligations are different for each Principal depending on the type of transactions or activities they are engaged in. For example, an importer will have different obligations than a carrier or a warehouse proprietor. By posting a surety bond the Principal is guaranteeing all, or a combination of, the payments of all duties, taxes, and fees owed to the federal government, submission of entry documentation, redelivery of merchandise to CBP upon lawful demand, compliance with regulations relating to the receipt, carriage, safekeeping, and disposition of bonded merchandise, maintenance of all records required by regulations relating to merchandise, and the production of records when demanded by the CBP.
Title 19, U.S. Code, Section 1623 gives The United States Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection the authority to require these surety bonds. The required surety bond form is the CBP Form 301. The Obligee on the bond is the United States.
