Hi Folks
I am surprised that people are still "having trouble" with Form 740 and
related documents - these have been around for years in one form or another!
We were routinely doing these forms 15 years ago (and they had been around a
long time before that) when I worked for HP at Bristol in the UK and we sent
equipment to our US companies !
What it might mean is:
- US Customs (and/or the FCC) are being more stringent on checking for the
forms and their content;
or
- Something else has changed in the way imports are being handled
or
Importers have simply forgotten that these requirements exist.

Subject: RE: FCC Importation Issue
The form that is mentioned below is FCC Form 740. If you go to
http://www.fcc.gov/ and type "FCC Form 740" in the search box. the first
item that comes up its the form. the second Item is a public notice
pertaining to the form
We just ran into this issue with one of our products that was held in
customs. In the past it has not seemed to be an issue.
Thanks,
Craig

Don,
Every now and then I get something stuck in US customs. Typically the
agent will supply a form for FCC or CDRH compliance depending what is hung
and the reason. If you fill out the paperwork the shipment proceeds. If I
find a copy of the form here I will scan it in and send it to you directly.
The only time the above did not work for me was a power supply sample
coming in from Singapore.
Good Luck,
Josh
Has anyone out there had any problems with U.S. Customs
holding a product for lack of FCC report or a declartion
>from a manufacturer that product is indeed compliant?
Thanks in advance,
