Some documented vessels can trade with Canada on the Great Lakes and connecting waters without owing entry and clearance fees. This applies to vessels that have a registry endorsement. It applies only to vessels engaged in that specific foreign trade.
This section covers documented vessels that carry a "registry endorsement" and that engage in foreign trade on the Great Lakes, or on the tributary or connecting waters of the Great Lakes, trading with Canada. Vessels that meet this description do not become liable to pay entry and clearance fees just because of that trade.
Documented vessels with a registry endorsement, engaged in foreign trade on the Great Lakes or their tributary or connecting waters in trade with Canada, shall not thereby become liable to the payment of entry and clearance fees.
