Customs sealing of suspicious containers after scanning to prevent pilferage, with seal replacement and recordkeeping requirements. Containers marked as suspicious after scanning must be sealed with a Customs seal before leaving the scanning point to prevent pilferage or replacement of goods. Standard containers are to receive a customs bottle seal, while ISO tanks are to be sealed with strip seals or punch seals. If no space is available because all points are already sealed, one private or commercial seal may be cut and replaced after informing the concerned parties. The scanning officer must note the time and seal number on the EIR copy, and the CFS must maintain daily entry records.
