ABI Error Message

4KT: CERT NOT REQD/COMPUTED FEE < 2.01

A COTTON FEE EXEMPTION CERTIFICATE NUMBER WAS ENTERED FOR A LINE WHOSE FEE IS LESS THAN $2.01 AND IS NOT, THEREFORE, PAYABLE. THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR THIS ERROR IS THAT THE FILER IS USING OUTDATED COTTON FEE RATES. THIS ERROR ALSO OCCURS WHEN THE COTTON FEE IS LESS THAN $2.01 AND THE FILER SENDS NO COTTON FEE BUT SENDS A DISCLAIMER OF ALL 9'S IN THE 51 RECORD.
2C1: BOND EXPIRED

A VALID BOND WAS ON FILE FOR IMPORTER, BUT IT HAS EXPIRED. NOTE: THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO OCCUR IF THE FILER USES A VALID BOND THAT IS NOT A TYPE 1 OR 1A1 (THE ONLY VALID BOND TYPES FOR IMPORTATIONS BY IMPORTERS). CLIENT REPS CAN CHECK THE BOND FILE TO DETERMINE WHAT TYPE BOND IS ON FILE FOR THE IMPORTER OF RECORD NUMBER. NOTE: IF THE PORT PROCESSING THE BOND DOES NOT COMPLETE THE UPDATE ACTION, AN ABI FILER TRANSMITTING AN ENTRY SUMMARY THAT REFERENCES AN 'INCOMPLETE' BOND WILL RECEIVE THIS ERROR MESSAGE AS WELL.
16E: VALUE/QUANTITY INVALID

THE UNIT VALUE OF THE ITEM REPORTED UNDER THIS TARIFF NUMBER DOES NOT FALL IN THE RANGE STATED BY THE TARIFF NUMBER'S DESCRIPTION IN THE HARMONIZED TARIFF RECORDS. AS AS EXAMPLE, TARIFF NUMBER 6402195030 IS FOR CERTAIN FOOTWEAR VALUED OVER $3.00 PER PAIR, BUT NOT OVER $6.50 PER PAIR. IF A SHIPMENT REPORTS 100 PAIRS AT A TOTAL VALUE OF $285, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT, AS THE UNIT PRICE PER PAIR OF SHOES WOULD BE $2.85. THE FILER SHOULD REVERIFY THAT THE CORRECT VALUE AND QUANTITY IS BEING REPORTED AND, IF SO, SELECT A TARIFF NUMBER THAT CORRECTLY DESCRIBES THE VALUE/QUANTITY RANGE FOR THE IMPORTATION.

THE FILER'S SOFTWARE SHOULD TRANSLATE THE CODE INTO THE APPROPRIATE BOND TYPE AND DESCRIPTION.
