# §122.43. General declaration.

- (a) **When required.** A general declaration, Customs Form 7507, shall be filed for all aircraft required to enter under [§ 122.41](/cfr/19/122.41.md) (Aircraft required to enter).
- (b) **Exception.** Aircraft arriving directly from Canada on a flight beginning in Canada and ending in the U.S. need not file a general declaration to enter. Instead, an air cargo manifest (see [§ 122.48](/cfr/19/122.48.md)) may be filed in place of the general declaration, regardless of whether cargo is on board. The air cargo manifest shall state the following:
- (c) **Form.** The general declaration shall be on Customs Form 7507 or on a privately printed form prepared under [§ 122.5](/cfr/19/122.5.md). The form shall contain all required information, unless the information is given in some other manner under [subpart E](/cfr/19/subpartE.md) of this part.
