ABI Error Message

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 EFFECTIVE 03/01/93, THIS COUNTRY CODE WAS NO LONGER VALID.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.

IF FEWER THAN FOUR RECORDS ARE TRANSMITTED, THE RECORDS MUST BE COMPLETED USING THE FIRST FIELD (POS 5-21), THEN THE SECOND (POS 22-38), ETC. IF POSITION 3 IS LEFT BLANK, BUT A VIN IS TRANSMITTED IN POSITION 4, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

THUS ABI HAS NO FILE TO SEARCH TO VERIFY THE HMF OR MPF AMOUNT CLAIMED BY THE RECON FILER IN ITS R21 RECORD. THIS MESSAGE IS A WARNING, HOWEVER, AND WILL NOT, IN AND OF ITSELF, CAUSE A RECON ENTRY TO BE REJECTED.

B24:	LOWER CASE LETTERS FIRM/ADDR/CITY

THE TARIFF NUMBERS QTY1/QTY2 VALUES REPORTED VIA ABI FALL OUT OF RANGE FOR THE EXISTING TARIFF QTY LO/HI BOUNDS. TO CALCULATE THE QUANTITY RATIO, USE THE QTY EDIT CODES LOCATED ON THE TARIFF DATABASE. FOR EXAMPLE, SEE HTS 5208521000. THE QTY EDIT CODES ARE 211. USE THE SECOND REPORTED QUANTITY (KG) AS THE NUMERATOR AND THE FIRST REPORTED QUANTITY (M2) AS THE DENOMINATOR TO DERIVE THE QUANTITY RATIO (SEE HTS USER'S GUIDE APPENDIX D, PAGES D-3 & D-4). FOR THIS HTS, THE QTY RATIO MUST FALL BETWEEN THE LO/HI/ QTY VALUES OR THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. TO CORRECT THE ERROR, THE FILER CAN 1) VERIFY THE QUANTITIES, 2) CONSULT THE HARMONIZED TARIFF FOR A BETTER CLASSIFICATION OR 3) CONTACT AN IMPORT SPECIALIST.
