changed or altered after entry of the Aircraft, except by means of an amendment by the pilot-
in-command or authorized agent thereof, under oath, and attached to the original manifest.
• Provided, that after the invoice and/or goods declaration covering an importation have been
received and recorded in the office of the appraiser, no amendment shall be allowed except
when it is obvious that a clerical error or any other discrepancy has been committed without
any fraudulent intent in the preparation of the manifest, the discovery of which could not
have been made until after complete examination of the importation.
• Moreover, under Section 4.10 of CAO 15-2020, the treatment of Customs for the late
submission of the Cargo Manifest and the unmanifested cargo is that if the party failing to
submit the Cargo Manifest, Consolidated Cargo Manifest (CCM) and other documents as may

Carrier or his agent;
