The document that the Master uses to attest to the truth of the manifest of cargo is called _______________.

AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Oath of Entry. The Oath of Entry, also known as the Oath of the Master, is the document that the Master (captain) uses to attest to the truth of the manifest of cargo. This document is required by U.S. Customs and Border Protection when a vessel enters a U.S. port, and the Master must swear that the information provided in the manifest is accurate to the best of their knowledge. The other options are incorrect because they do not specifically refer to the document used by the Master to attest to the cargo manifest. The Owner's Oath, Shipper's Certification, and Master's Protest are different documents with different purposes in the shipping process.
