If a passenger is unladen from a vessel or vehicle without a special license or permit issued by the appropriate customs officer, the vessel’s master or the vehicle’s person in charge is liable for a penalty. Every other person who knowingly is concerned in or aids the unlicensed unloading is also separately liable for the same penalty: $1,000 for the first passenger and $500 for each additional passenger.

If any passenger is "unladen" from any vessel or vehicle without a special license or permit issued by the appropriate customs officer, the master of that vessel or the person in charge of that vehicle, and every other person who knowingly is concerned in or aids in that unloading, must each pay a penalty of $1,000 for the first passenger and $500 for each additional passenger so "unladen." This section does not define "unladen," "master," or "person in charge."
