WHEN APPLYING FOR FURTHER REVIEW, THE FILER MUST ANSWER 3 FURTHER REVIEW CRITERIA QUESTIONS. EITHER FURTHER REVIEW HAS NOT BEEN REQUESTED, OR THEY HAVE ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED IN A PREVIOUS TRANSMISSION, MAKING THESE NOT APPLICABLE.

38N:	RESTRICTED COUNTRY

THE IMPORT RESTRICTION INDICATOR FOR THIS COUNTRY IS "1" ON THE COUNTRY CODE FILE. THIS INDICATES THAT THIS COUNTRY IS RESTRICTED FROM IMPORTING TO THE U.S. OR THAT THE COUNTRY'S CODE HAS BEEN RENDERED INACTIVE OR INVALID. SINCE THERE IS NO INACTIVE/INVALID CODE IN THE COUNTRY CODE FILE, THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT USE IS BY MAKING THE COUNTRY "RESTRICTED". AN EXAMPLE OF THIS IS THE COUNTRY CODE 'SQ' FOR SLOVAKIA. EFFECTIVE 03/01/93, THIS COUNTRY CODE WAS NO LONGER VALID. IT CHANGED TO 'SK'. A FILER MIGHT BE MISLED BY THE "RESTRICTED" INDICATOR THEY RECEIVE BACK ON A QUERY OR BY THIS MESSAGE WHEN TRANSMITTING AN ENTRY AND RECEIVING A REJECT. THIS LATTER TYPE OF COUNTRY CODE IS "INVALID" RATHER THAN RESTRICTED.

THE COMBINATION OF ELEMENTS IN THE C17 RECORD THAT ARE USED IN THE CALCULATION IS: - RATE/PER UNIT X UNIT PRICE BASIS /NBR OF PRICING UNITS (FROM ALL THE PRECEDING C33 RECORDS.) (IF C51/53 RECORDS ARE USED, ONLY THE C33 RECORD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE C51/53 RECORDS IS USED TO DETERMINE THE NUMBER OF PRICING UNITS).

VF3:	OGA DISCLAIMER NOT ALLOWED

OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY REQUIREMENTS ARE STIPULATED IN THE HARMONIZED TARIFF FILE. A DISCLAIMER IS ALLOWED ONLY ON THOSE TARIFF NUMBERS THAT ARE CODED WITH AN INDICATOR "MAY BE REQUIRED".

FILER SHOULD QUERY THE HARMONIZED NUMBER AND UPDATE THEIR DATABASE IF NECESSARY.

594:	INVALID DISTRICT /PORT OF UNLADING

THE PORT OF UNLADING (DIST/PORT CODE) MUST BE A VALID LOCATION AS SHOWN ON REGION/DISTRICT/PORT FILE (FOUR DIGIT DDPP). FILERS TRANSMIT THE PORT OF UNLADING FOR IMPORT SHIPMENTS IN THE ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION (EI - 20 REC, POS 30-33) OR THE CARGO RELEASE TRANSACTION (HI - H1 REC, POS 65-68). IF THE PORT CODE TRANSMITTED DOES NOT EXIST ON THE DATABASE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. ***NOTE***- IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE INFORMATION, A PORT THAT IS LISTED ON THE FILE MUST ALSO BE SET TO "Y" AS AN UNLADING PORT. IF THE PORT IS SET AS "N" FOR UNLADING PORT, THE ABOVE ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

69A:	ORIGIN COUNTRY/TARIFF NBR INVALID

THIS ERROR MESSAGE RESULTS WHEN A REQUIREMENT BETWEEN THE TARIFF NUMBER REPORTED IN THE 50 REC, POS 4-13, AND THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN REPORTED IN THE 40 REC, POS 6-7, IS VIOLATED. THE MOST COMMON EXAMPLE OF THIS WOULD BE THE USE OF ANY COUNTRY OTHER THAN "US" WITH TARIFF NUMBERS IN THE 98010010NN RANGE. ALSO, CHAPTER 9999 NUMBERS MAY BE SPECIFICALLY LINKED TO EITHER CANADA OR MEXICO. IF THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE TARIFF NUMBER IN CHAPTER 99, THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT.

THE ABOVE MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE FILER HAS TRANSMITTED AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI) FOR AN ENTRY THAT IS CURRENTLY IN SOME FORM OF EXAMINATION STATUS. WHILE THE EXAMINATION STATUS ATTACHES TO THE ENTRY ASSOCIATED WITH THE INVOICE IN QUESTION, A RETRANSMISSION OF THE INVOICE DATA IS NOT PERMITTED.

VA2:	UNKNOWN AGY IN 'OA' DECLARATION

THE OA DECLARATION IS A RECORD IN AN OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY DATA SET IN AN AUTOMATED TRANSACTION. IT IS THE RECORD WHERE A FILER CAN "DISCLAIM" A TARIFF NUMBER FROM OGA DATA. AS OF 5/99 THE PERMITTED OTHER AGENCIES ARE FDA (FD0), FWS (FW0), DOT (DT0) AND FCC (FC0). IN AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION (EI) THE OA RECORD FOLLOWS THE 50 RECORD. IN A CARGO SELECTIVITY TRANSACTION (HI) THE OA RECORD FOLLOWS THE H5 RECORD (FDA, FWS AND DOT). IN A BORDER CARGO SELECTIVITY TRANSACTION (HN) THE OA RECORD FOLLOWS THE 02 RECORD (FDA,FWS,DOT). THE OGA DISCLAIMER IS SENT IN POSITIONS 5-7 OF THE OA RECORD. SUBSEQUENT DISCLAIMERS ARE SENT IN POSITIONS 8-10, 11-13, 14-16 AND 17-19, WHEN APPLICABLE . THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF THE OTHER AGENCY SENT IN POSITIONS 5-6 (OR 8-9, 11-12, 14-15, 17-18) IS NOT A VALID OGA INTERFACE AGENCY.

IN8:	LAND BORDER ENTRY NOT ARRIVED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A CARGO SELECTIVITY RESULTS QUERY (APPLICATION IN). ENTRIES FILED THROUGH BORDER CARGO SELECTIVITY DO NOT RECEIVE SELECTIVITY RESULTS UNTIL THE CONVEYANCE ARRIVES AT THE U.S. BORDER PORT AND AN INSPECTOR ACTIVATES THE SELECTIVITY RESULTS WITH THE PF 10 KEY.

IF THE RECON ENTRY IS STILL IN ABI STATUS, THE FILER MAY TRANSMIT A 'D' TO DELETE THE RECON. NOTE: IF THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS RECEIVED, OFTEN THE FILER WILL ALSO RECEIVE ERROR MESSAGE BRH 'OTHER RECON ALREADY ON FILE' FOR ALL THE ASSOCIATED IMPORT ENTRIES. CORRECTING ERROR RBL WILL ALSO CORRECT ERROR BRH.

THE "OI" RECORD IS USED IN OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY ENTRIES. THE DESCRIPTION IS LOCATED IN THE CATAIR, PAGE OG-11. THIS RECORD IS SENT WHEN THERE IS DATA TO BE SENT (I.E.
