Instructions for ABI QP In-Bond Amendments for Truck Shipments

CBP has issued a CSMS message stating that in order to amend a previously filed ABI QP In-Bond entry, two ABI transactions are required: first, deletion of the in-bond entry, then re-adding the in-bond entry with corrected data. Often these two transactions are transmitted to ABI simultaneously. While ABI accepts these transactions together, for a shipment arriving to the U.S. by truck (MOT = 30) this sometimes results in synchronization errors between ACS and the ACE Truck Manifest system.

Export Compliance Daily combines U.S. export control news, foreign border import regulation and policy developments into a single daily information service that reliably informs its trade professional readers about important current issues affecting their operations.

For a truck shipment, if it is necessary to amend a previously filed ABI QP in-bond transaction, the two steps should be handled separately. Filers should delete the original in-bond data first.; wait for the ABI “INBOND DELETED” message to confirm that the deletion has been completed; then re-add the in-bond entry with corrected data.
