Where should the original copy of the AMC Form 33 be placed?

The original copy of the AMC Form 33 should be placed attached to the number one container of cargo until the issue is resolved because this practice ensures that the necessary documentation remains with the shipment and is readily accessible during transport. This is crucial for tracking and verification purposes, allowing for efficient resolution of any issues that may arise while in transit. Keeping the form with the first container also reinforces accountability and ensures that all related details accompany the cargo, which is essential for maintaining accurate records and facilitating smooth operations.

Option one suggests filing the document away, which could lead to delays if the information is not readily available when needed. The third option, placing it with the consignee's documentation, would mean it may not be available when immediate reference is required during transit. The final choice to deliver it to the ACA/CSB could also create unnecessary delays and complicate the handling of any issues that arise. Therefore, attaching it to the cargo container is the most practical and efficient solution for maintaining control over the shipment process.
