I just can't see any extra threat with in bond shipments. They are stored in a secure warehouse until they are inspected and released.
Is it that yellow line painted on the floor that is the secure part?

If you read they are not always stored in a warehouse. For example,I have a product leaving Canada that is going to be loaded on a plane at an American city and flown to Ireland,that shipment would enter the US in bond because it won't enter commerce in the US. If some how that changed the US would keep the bond, in other words the US would not lose any money on import.

Roadrunner, thanks for the link. It was very informative. There were a lot of nits to pick. My top nit was the fact that a van can not haul bonded loads. The next time a shipping doc says In Bond I will not allow it to be loaded without a long talk with the expedite company.
Thanks again for the link.
