Container scanning compliance ensures selected import containers are scanned before exit, with penalties for terminal or custodian noncompliance. Containers selected by the Customs RMS must be scanned at the Mobile Container Scanning Facility before leaving port or reaching CFS/ICD; terminals must mark EIRs with 'Selected for scanning', inspectors must verify container and seal numbers, and after scanning endorse EIRs as 'SCANNED CLEAN', 'MIS MATCH; SEND TO DC/AC, Container Scanning Division' or note reasons for non scanning. Mis matches trigger scrutiny and may require 100% examination of related containers. Custodians and terminal operators face penalties under the Customs Act and Handling of Cargo in Customs Area Regulations for non compliance. Reporting and weekly statements of selections, scans and outcomes must be submitted to DC/AC(CSD).
