§ 30.65 - Annotating the proper exemption legends for shipments transmitted electronically.

The exporter or their authorized forwarding agent is responsible for annotating the proper exemption legend on the bill of lading, airway bill, or other commercial loading document for presentation to the carrier, either on paper or electronically prior to export. The exemption legend will identify that the shipment information has been transmitted electronically using the AES. The exemption legend will include the statement “NO SED REQUIRED—AES” followed by the filer's identification number and a unique shipment reference number or the returned confirmation number. For exporters who have been approved to participate in Filing Option 4, the exemption statement, “NO SED REQUIRED—AES,” should include the exporter's identification number and the filer's identification number if other than the exporter. The exemption legend must appear on the first page of the bill of lading, airway bill, or other commercial loading document and must be clearly visible.
