TITLE: FMVSR INTERPRETATION

TEXT: On June 14, 1972, you and Mr. Aubuchon of our Office of Standards Enforcement discussed the proper method of entry under 19 CFR @ 12.60 for incomplete motor vehicles and for chassis. This letter represents our opinion in this matter.

A vehicle consisting of a chassis-cab on wheels, or a chassis, intended for completion after entry, should be entered as motor vehicle equipment, and identified on the HS-7 importation form in the box titled Description of Motor Vehicle Equipment. No other homes need be checked or hood required.

We understand that you will circularize our opinion, and would approciate your furnishing a copy of such opinion to the Office of Standards Enforcement, Attn: 41-22 Cus.
