CBP Delays ACE Post-Release Deadline to January 2017
CBP again delayed its mandatory use date for ACE drawback, reconciliation, duty deferral, statements and liquidation, the agency said on Sept. 28 (here). “In order to allow additional time for all stakeholders to prepare for this transition, and to provide the opportunity to solicit and receive public comment on the associated regulatory changes, CBP is rescheduling this transition which was previously scheduled for October 29, 2016,” it said. “CBP is targeting January 2017 for the revised deployment and mandatory date and will provide additional clarification regarding the precise transition date in the coming weeks.”

CBP pushed back the deadline already once this month in response to trade community concerns with the original Oct. 1 deadline. President Barack Obama in a 2014 executive order mandated completion of the International Trade Data System by the end of 2016. CBP didn't immediately comment.
