Unfortunately, bill of landing (BOL) data is not available in official U.S. import statistics. While bills of lading and other shipment information along with Form 3461 (Customs Release) are required to be filed for goods to be entered into the country, these submissions are not the basis for import statistics because they do not contain the necessary data granularity needed for the creation of official U.S. import statistics. The Census Bureau instead uses data submitted to CBP by the importers of record in their entry summary paperwork, Form 7501 (which is submitted later in the import process typically after the cargo has already been released by Customs). As a result, any cargo release information, including the bills of lading, are not available on DataWeb. You will need to contact U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to get more detailed data from the cargo release process.
Can I get bills of lading data from DataWeb?
