A shipment of 500 cases of shoes was manifested for ABC Shoe Company. 150 cases were short. Name the form necessary to amend the manifest.

• A. C.10 - Application to Amend Inward Report - Outward Manifest
• B. C.2 - Report Inwards of Vessels
• C. C.1 - Attendance Request
• D. C.36 - Certificate of Clearance of Vessel from Last Port

Answer: (A)

When cargo doesn’t match what was declared on the manifest, the official record must be corrected so duties and statistics reflect reality. The form designed for correcting an already-filed manifest is the Application to Amend Inward Report - Outward Manifest, commonly used for updates to the inward (import) record and the outward manifest. In this scenario, since 150 cases were short, you would file this amendment to revise the manifest to reflect the actual quantity received. Other forms serve different purposes (initial arrival reporting, attendance requests, or vessel clearance) and don’t address adjusting the manifest quantities. So the correct choice is to use the amendment form to make the necessary update.
