Sec. 144.11  Form of entry.

    (a) Entry. The documentation required by Sec. 142.3 of this chapter 
shall be filed at the time of entry. If the entry summary, Customs Form 
7501, is filed at the time of entry for merchandise to be entered for 
warehouse, it shall serve as both the entry and the entry summary, and 
Customs Form 3461 or 7533 shall not be required. If the entry summary is 
not filed at the time of entry, it shall be filed within the time limit 
prescribed by Sec. 142.12 of this chapter. If merchandise is released 
before the filing of the entry summary, the importer shall have a bond 
on file, as prescribed by Sec. 142.4 of this chapter.
    (b) Customs Form 7501. The entry summary for merchandise entered for 
warehouse shall be executed in triplicate on Customs Form 7501, 
appropriately modified, and shall include all of the statistical 
information required by Sec. 141.61(e) of this chapter. The port 
director may require an extra copy or copies of Customs Form 7501, 
annotated ``PERMIT'' for use in connection with delivery of the 
merchandise to the bonded warehouse.
    (c) Designation of warehouse. The importer shall designate on the 
entry summary, Customs Form 7501, the bonded warehouse in which he 
desires his merchandise deposited.
    (d) Specification list. When packages which are not uniform in 
contents, quantities, values, or rates of duties are grouped together as 
one item on an entry summary, a specification list (original only) shall 
be furnished with the entry summary, showing separately opposite the 
marks or numbers of each package, the quantity of each class of 
merchandise, the entered value of each class, and the rates of duty 
claimed for each. However, a specification list is not needed if one 
withdrawal is to be filed for all the merchandise covered by the entry 
summary.
