ACE Deadline for Statements on Dec. 9 Won't Include Recon Statements, CBP Says

The Dec. 9 deadline for generating, transmitting and updating daily and monthly statements in ACE will not apply to statements for reconciliation (type 09) entries, CBP said in a notice. “Until reconciliation entries are filed in ACE, statements for reconciliation entries will continue to be generated, transmitted and updated” in the Automated Commercial System (ACS), CBP said. “Once reconciliation entries are filed in ACE, ACE will be the sole CBP-authorized EDI system for generating, transmitting and updating all statements, and ACS will no longer be a CBP-authorized EDI system for such purpose.” The ACE mandatory use date for reconciliation entries is Feb. 24, 2018, so reconciliation statements will also be mandatory on that date, according to the CBP website. The Dec. 9 ACE deadline also includes foreign-trade zone admissions and manufacturer ID capabilities (see 1707270035).
