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 Unable to Give Preferential Treatment to US-Japan FTA Entries in ACE Until Jan. 14
December 31, 2019 |Customs

CBP will update ACE with new special program indicator “JP” for goods eligible under the U.S.-Japan FTA on Jan. 14, the agency said in a CSMS message. While the FTA enters into force on Jan. 1 (see 1912270025), through Jan. 13 “importers must pay duties on qualifying goods under the Agreement and request a preferential tariff retroactive claim by filing a post summary correction (PSC) to request the duty refund,” CBP said. For preferential treatment under the FTA, the country of origin and country of export must by “JP,” CBP said. Once ACE is updated, “the Special Program indicator 'JP' must be placed before the eligible tariff number to make the claim,” it said. “Claims for preferential treatment under this Agreement are not exempt from the merchandise processing fee (class code 499 and class code 311).”
