Which code to use for BRU on air freight documents
Put BRU on the air waybill, the booking and the flight schedule for Brussels Airport, Zaventem. The four-letter ICAO code EBBR identifies the same airport in flight plans and air-traffic control and does not appear on cargo paperwork.
The code also sets where your rate applies: a forwarder quotes airport-to-airport between two IATA codes unless the booking is door-to-door.
BRU has no CBP Schedule D code because Schedule D is a US-only system. If BRU is your origin, the customs code that matters is the one for your US airport of entry. Every US airport page in this tool shows it where the Census list names the airport.
