Definition

ABI Carrier Code.

ABI Interface Cargo Release:

A code identifying the carrier. This code is required for air and sea shipments only at the current time. This code may be required in the future for other modes of transportation. If the mode of transportation code is 10 or 11 (vessel shipments), enter the appropriate 4 position Standard Carrier Alpha Code (SCAC) as issued by the National Motor Traffic Association Inc. This code is usually located on the bill of lading. If it is not, the carrier should be able to provide it. If the mode of transportation code is 40 (air shipments), enter the appropriate 2 position carrier abbreviation, left justified. For a description of the mode of transportation codes, refer to Appendix B. Air carrier codes may be obtained by querying the Extract Reference File. For additional information, refer to the Extract Reference File chapter of this document. For entry type 06 (Foreign Trade Zone), do not input a Carrier code.

If the carrier file does not contain a specific air carrier code, enter one of the following codes in the first two positions of the unlisted carrier designation code to designate the country in which the carrier is registered.

Code    Carrier Registration

*U    United States

*C    Canada

*F    Other Foreign Country

If a private aircraft is being entered under its own power, enter ** in the first two positions of the Carrier Code.
