Will the warehouse get an AMPs penalty for not ‘arriving’ the cargo with a WACM in the following scenario? When the FPOA port and the final sub-loc code are in the same Customs port, the release status is provided before the cargo is ‘arrived’ via a WACM at the destined sub-loc.

To complete the scenario:  Will the warehouse get an AMPs penalty for not ‘arriving’ the cargo with a WACM in the following scenario? When the FPOA port and the final sub-loc code are in the same Customs port, the release status is provided before the cargo is ‘arrived’ via a WACM at the destined sub-loc. Therefore the warehouse operator does not ‘arrive’ the cargo (do the WACM) as the goods are already released.

Customs Notice CN 15-028 was revised slightly August 30, 2016 and clearly puts the requirement on the warehouse operator (under paragraph 4) to do the WACM ”when unreleased shipments physically arrive at the sufferance warehouse to which they are destined.” So, if the CCN is released, no WACM required. If not released, do the WACM.
