In either case, a receipt for the baggage to be examined or reexamined shall be given on Customs Form 6051. (b) Protest. If the passenger remains dissatisfied with the assessment of duty after reexamination, he shall pay the duty assessed and may protest the decision of the port director in accordance with part 174 of this chapter.
