Form C.5A is used for which purpose?

• A. Attendance Request
• B. Report Inwards of Vessels
• C. Aircraft General Declaration
• D. Declaration of Consumable Stores On Board Aircraft

Answer: (D)

Form C.5A is used to declare on-board consumable stores on aircraft. Consumable stores are items that are consumed or used up during the flight or while the aircraft is operating, such as provisions or supplies carried for on-board use. Declaring these separately helps customs know exactly what is on the aircraft beyond the general declaration and to determine any duties, taxes, or regulatory requirements that might apply to those items when the aircraft enters or leaves the country. This form is distinct from an Aircraft General Declaration, which covers the broader information about the flight, crew, passengers, and goods on board. It’s also not about attendance requests or ship-related inward reports, which are for different modes of transport.
