A vessel arrives in the port of Los Angeles from a foreign port and discharges some of its inward foreign cargo. What additional manifest is required?
• Cargo manifest types used when arriving from a foreign port • What happens on the paperwork to cargo that is NOT discharged at the first U.S. port of arrival • How U.S. ports track remaining cargo that will move on to another port
• Ask yourself: When only part of the cargo is unloaded, what document must show which cargo is still on board for the next port? • Which manifest name best fits the idea of cargo continuing its voyage after the first U.S. port? • Think about how Customs and port authorities would know what cargo is still on the ship and where it is going next.
• Identify which option logically applies to cargo continuing to another port after some is discharged • Eliminate any choice that clearly refers only to arriving cargo, not to cargo that stays aboard • Check which term is commonly associated with a manifest that "moves with" the vessel to subsequent ports.
