December 7, 2015

Please see attached Informational Pipeline No. 16-004-NWK, Revised Procedures for Exporting Self-Propelled Vehicles. The following changes to the Port of New York/Newark procedures relating to the exportation of self-propelled vehicles are effective immediately:

CBP will provide a stamped “release” for export vehicles and require vehicles to be "held on dock" awaiting such a release past the 72 hour requirement complying with CBP regulation 19 CFR 192.2. CBP will require all stamped release documents to be presented to the steamship line prior to loading vehicles for export.  The steamship line and terminal are not authorized to load vehicles for export without such stamped "release."
