Latest version.
  • (a) When tea under examination is stored in any warehouse it must be so placed as to be separate from other merchandise and so as to allow convenient supervision by customs officers and officers of the Department of Health and Human Services. At ports where there are no bonded warehouses, class 2 or 3, the chief customs officer of the port will, when necessary, procure suitable premises for the temporary storage of any tea reaching his port. The repacking of tea in warehouse for export purposes is not allowed.

    (b) All expenses of storage, cartage, and labor must be paid by the importer.
