Effective March 29, 2013, the port of New River Valley, Va (Port Code 1412) will not be staffed. Since all cargo entered at 1412 arrives in-bond from other ports, CBP recommends that filers clear merchandise at the first port of arrival.



Use of Port 1412 as the port of entry may result in delays in release of the merchandise. If an inspection is required, the merchandise must remain intact until arrangements can be made to send a CBP Officer from another port to examine the goods. CBP cannot guarantee a response time frame.



Alternatively, the goods could be sent in-bond to the port of Ruchmond, Va. for the required examination. Please contact the port of Norfolk at 757-533-4200 for questions about this change.



For port 1412 entry processing, contact the port of Richmond at 804-226-9675.
