Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

CBP Says Binding Rulings May Be Delayed
March 20, 2020 |Customs

The CBP National Commodity Specialist Division is still accepting binding ruling requests, but “paper binding ruling requests and requests that include or necessitate a sample may be delayed in processing and/or issuance,” CBP said in a CSMS message. Filers are encouraged to use the eRulings website for ruling requests and to include detailed “photographs or short videos of the product to be submitted in lieu of samples,” it said. “However, we recognize that certain commodities require a sample in order for a determination to be made. In such cases, delays may occur. The National Import Specialist assigned to work on your ruling will reach out to you to discuss your options and whether a determination can be made without a sample.”

CBP Says No Immediate Plans to Delay Protest Deadlines, But Will Extend Bond Insufficiency Timeline
March 19, 2020 |Customs

CBP is not currently planning to allow for delayed deadlines for protest filings or postpone ACE development due to the COVID-19 outbreak, CBP officials said during a March 19 conference call. It will give more time to comply with bond insufficiency issues, it said in a March 19 CSMS message." Due to the operational impacts that COVID-19 is having on the Trade community, CBP is granting a 10-day extension for the termination and replacement of bonds found to be insufficient and for which notices were issued with a due date of March 21, 2020," it said. "The insufficient bond should be scheduled for termination by March 31, 2020, with a termination date no later than April 15, 2020. CBP is operating under normal procedures and is able to complete processing and reviews timely. As a result, the April bond sufficiency reviews and notices will not be postponed at this time. CBP will continue to monitor the situation daily and make additional extensions if deemed necessary."
