ATA Carnet Budget
When budgeting for the purchase of a carnet there are several questions to answer and costs to consider (here's an ATA carnet budget worksheet you can download to help you budget):
What is the value of my equipment or merchandise? This determines the Basic Processing Fee. ($200-$330)
What will the bond amount and bond premium be for the Carnet Bond that I am required to post? ($100 minimum)
Will I need Insurance for my equipment or merchandise while it is in transit or storage temporarily? ($250 minimum)
How many trips am I making? Do I need more than 4 sets of certificates? ($10 per set)
Do I want to purchase a Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Carnet Warranty to protect my document? ($15 per carnet)
Will I use the QuickList service to import my list of items to the carnet application form? ($40 minimum)
Will CIB issue my Shipper's Export Declaration? ($25)
Do I need guaranteed next day delivery? ($75 minimum)
Does my General List have more than 50 items so I will need a continuation sheet? ($5 per sheet)
