put under “Port of Entry” on a 3-177 when a package has already arrived on your desk through the mail and there’s no way to track it back through its journey.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:105%;font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">I put this to the USF&W officer here in Philadelphia, and he said “Philadelphia.” The 3-177 then got cleared, so maybe just put the nearest port to where you
are? <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">I have had this discussion with USFWS before and it is difficult to know definitively where it may enter the United States. In general, shipments coming from South America to the United States have a "high likelihood"
of first arriving in either Miami, FL or Atlanta, GA. The recommendation if using a shipping vendor other than DHL, FedEx, or UPS is to file the USFWS 3-177 Import Declaration with the most likely port and include the 3-177 with the documentation. If it arrives
in a different port than what you chose, it is easy for communication between USFWS ports (if necessary) to occur during any customs' checks. If the package is only reviewed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, they may be the only communication point directly
to the port indicated on the 3-177.<o:p></o:p></p>

If someone sends us a package with specimens from Brazil using Correios, and it’s delivered to us by the USPS, what would the Port of Entry be on the 3-177? Inquiring minds want to know.
