If the MAWB is consigned to the forwarder and we submit the single 8000 eHBL, can we clear out of the airline’s warehouse?

If the primary carrier’s MAWB is consigned to a freight forwarder, and there is a forwarder’s housebill, the 8000 eHBL must be filed 4 hours prior to arrival and it is that 8000 cargo control number under which the ‘release request’ will be made. (This is a significant difference between eHBL and the previous ACI supplementary filing). The ‘Deconsolidation Notice’, when implemented at the airline’s warehouse, will allow the goods to move on the 8000, so then you can still make a release request from the airline warehouse and get a single cleared from the airline warehouse.

[Editor’s Note: We need everyone to ask their airline carriers to implement the Deconsolidation Notice]
