[Nhcoll-l] [EXTERN] Re: Incoming package from Brazil | Agência dos Correios, Sao Paulo import to US Port of entry

Hi Paul,

apologies for dragging your post up without highlighting your original question again ;-)

It was because of Ben's answer ", ... shipments coming from South America to the United States have a "high likelihood" of first arriving in either Miami, FL or Atlanta, GA."

Apologies for the missing/incomplete context information!

Folks,
My original question was not how one predicts in advance which port a postal package will arrive at (in order to pre-issue a 3-177 for the sender) but what to 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.
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?

Hi Sarah,

this was a post of Ben Hess answering a question Paul brought up ...

Hope this helps

Paul,

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.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out. We have had this occur multiple times in the past few years.

Sincerely,

Ben

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.
