Do I need to file for shipments of empty containers if the value is over $2,500?
No, when containers are moving, either loaded or empty, without transfer of ownership or title, in their capacity as carriers of goods or as instruments of such carriers, they are not required to be filed. However, if ownership of such containers is transferred, electronic export information would need to be filed (FTR section 30.26 (a)).
