A manifest in duplicate covering the in-transit merchandise which is to proceed under the provisions of this subpart shall be presented by the carrier to the Customs officer at each port of lading of a vessel, or at the port of exit of a vehicle. Where the merchandise is transported under Customs red in-bond seals and is accompanied by a transportation in-bond manifest, a separate in-transit manifest is not required. (b) Additional copies. In the following cases additional copies of the manifest shall be presented: (1) When the merchandise is to be transshipped in foreign territory under Customs supervision, a copy of the manifest for each place of transshipment shall be presented. (2) When a Customs officer requests an extra copy of the manifest as a record of the transaction. (c) Manifest forms to be used. The in-transit manifest forms to be used are: (1) For trucks, railroad cars or other overland carriers transiting Mexico a manifest on Customs Form 7512-B or 7533-C shall be presented.

All other vessels are subject to the manifesting requirements contained in § 4.82 of this chapter.
