What is required next to any alterations on a Shipper's Declaration?

• A. Full signature of certifier
• B. Initials of certifier
• C. None, changes are not permitted
• D. Corrections should be made in a different color ink

Answer: (A)

Any alteration on a Shipper's Declaration must be endorsed with the certifier's full signature right next to the change. This ensures the modification is legally valid, traceable, and clearly attributable to the person responsible for certifying the information. A full signature provides accountability and authority for the amendment, which initials or other informal marks wouldn’t reliably establish. Corrections in a different color ink aren’t a substitute for that official endorsement and don’t show who approved the change or when it was made.
