Brokers Should Email Customs Release Info for Parcels Requiring Formal Entry, Says CBP LA

Customs brokers are "encouraged" to email the customs release documents for mail parcels that require formal entry, said the Port of Los Angeles in a public bulletin. The Los Angeles International Mail Facility is six miles from the centralized entry processing site and delivery of the form is usually "by mail, messenger service or fax," said CBP. Instead, brokers should email forms 3509 and 3461 release documents to laximf3461@cbp.dhs.gov, the notice said.
