Abstract: CBP Form 7507, General Declaration, must be filed for all aircraft required to enter or depart under the provisions of 19 CFR 122.41 or 122.61. This form is used to document entrance and clearance for arriving and departing aircraft at the required inspection facilities and inspections by appropriate regulatory agency staffs. Flight identifying information, including the aircraft registration number, which is not collected elsewhere by CBP, and a declaration attesting to the accuracy, completeness and truthfulness of all other documents that make up the manifest shall be submitted on the CBP Form 7507 for aircraft entering or departing the United States, with certain exceptions.
New Change:
To reduce paperwork and reduce duplication of information, the CBP Form 7507 is being streamlined, and will no longer require respondents to provide passenger and crew information, a declaration of health for the persons on board, and details about disinfecting and sanitizing treatments during the flight. The General Declaration (CBP Form 7507) will now only contain:
1. Flight identifying information.
2. The aircraft registration number (if not otherwise collected or received by CBP).
3. A declaration attesting to the accuracy, completeness, and truthfulness of all other documents that make up the manifest.
CBP Form 7507 is authorized by 19 U.S.C. 1431, 1433, and 1644a; and provided for by 19 CFR 122.43, 122.52, 122.54, 122.73, and 122.144. This form is accessible at https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms.
