Permission for a prior release issued in accordance with subparagraph 3 of the preceding paragraph shall be limited to one time only for each applicant with the same commodities, except application for type test or type approval has been filed or under special conditions approved by the BSMI.

However, in cases specified in subparagraph 4 of paragraph 1, or where finished products are not available for sampling at the port, the inspection authority may conduct sampling or examining at the storage place after prior releasing.
