Air In-bond
This chapter provides for in-bond initiation, deletion, arrival and export.
Air In-Bond Initiation/Deletion (QX)
An in-bond transaction consists of three mandatory QX records that include in-bond header,
importing conveyance and bill of lading control information. The in-bond records that make up the
transaction must be transmitted to CBP in ascending order with certain record segments repeated as
often as necessary.
The following conditions must be met before an in-bond will be accepted:
The QX filer must be set to operational for in-bond but does not have to be set to operational for
entry summary.
Brokers and Non-brokers may participate provided they acquire the appropriate software and
establish the required communication link.
The carrier must have transmitted the bill prior to the transmission of QX data
Input: Record Identifiers QX10, QX20 and QX30 are mandatory input records to initiate or delete an
air in-bond.
The application identifier on Record Identifier B is QX. For additional information on Record
Identifier B, refer to the Application Control chapter of this publication.
Output: Record identifier XT95 is a mandatory output record.
The application identifier on Record Identifier B is XT. For additional information on Record
Identifier B, refer to the Application Control chapter of this publication.
In-bond output XT95 records provide participants with messages indicating whether or not an in-
bond data transmission to CBP contained errors or was error free.
The QX10, QX20 and QX30 records are returned to the filer as originally input with a processing
results in the XT95 record indicating results of processing.

in-bonds.
The application identifier on Record Identifier B is WX. For additional information on Record
Identifier B, refer to the Application Control chapter of this publication.
Output: Record Identifier YT95 is a mandatory output record. Each output message will include
records WX10 and WX20 as originally input when reporting the arrival or export of the air in-bonds.
