A question came in through our online chat service today about a company transporting a plane for repairs. The company already had an International Carrier bond on file or Activity Code 3 bond. They didn't know if this bond would allow them to enter the US after their plane was fixed in Costa Rica.
We get questions everyday to where there is a completely unique situation to an importer or carrier. In this instance we told them to make sure and contact the port in which the plane would be returning to. The size of their carrier bond would have been determined at this port as well, when they went to place the bond. The size of the bond usually depends on the port and the aircraft in question. It is our understanding that entrance to this port would not be different from any of the company's other activies and thus would be included under this bond. However, always make sure and double check with the port!
You can find a complete list of port contact information here.
