On the delivery of any goods for removal, an account, containing the particulars thereof, shall be transmitted by the proper officer of the port of removal to the proper officer of the port or place of destination, and the person requiring the removal thereof shall enter into bond, with one sufficient surety, in a sum equal at least to the duty chargeable on such goods, for the due arrival and re-warehousing thereof at the port or place of destination within such time as the Commissioners of Customs may direct, such bond to be taken by the collector or other proper officer, either of the port or place of removal or the port or place of destination, as shall best suit the residence or convenience of the parties interested in such removal; and if such bond shall have been given at the intended port or place of destination, a certificate thereof, under the hand of the collector or other proper officer of such port, shall, at the time of the entering of such goods, be produced to the collector or other proper officer of the port of removal; and such bond shall not be discharged unless such goods shall have been produced to the proper officer and duly re-warehoused at the port of destination, or unless the full duties of Customs shall have been paid thereon within forty-eight hours after the arrival thereof, but in no case later than the time allowed for such removal, or shall have been otherwise accounted for to the satisfaction of the Commissioners of Customs, nor until the full duties due upon any deficiency of such goods not so accounted for shall have been paid; but any remover may enter into general bond, with such sureties, in such amount, and under such conditions as the Commissioners of Customs may approve, for the removal from time to time of any goods from one warehouse to another, and for the due arrival and re-warehousing of the same at the place of destination, within such time or times as the said Commissioners may direct.
