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").

The next ACE deployment to affect the trade will be risk based bonding under the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act, CBP said in an updated deployment schedule. The agency said Release 1B for TFTEA risk based bonding in scheduled for March 2020, while release 2 will be deployed in July. Those additions are meant to reduce the risk of uncollected antidumping or countervailing duties and then “provide CBP users with a single view of all bonds (i.e. bond usage) for a given entry/entry summary number," it said. The first phase of truck manifest deployment (see 1911040023) is planned for March 2020, while deployment of Real Time Automated Surety Interface capabilities is set for June, it said.

November 15, 2019 |Customs

A previously delayed deployment of new Broker Management Office functionalities in ACE is scheduled for Dec. 7, CBP said in a CSMS message. The agency delayed the deployment in September (see 1909260048). CBP also posted a trade information notice describing what will change. "This enhanced functionality will allow CBP’s Broker Management Branch (BMB) to consolidate functionality from standalone databases and automate processes such as generation of licenses and permits in ACE," it said. "The functionality will also allow the field Broker Management Officers to print permits within ACE." After the deployment, "ACE will no longer allow trade users to delete an employee through the mass update spreadsheet, in order to maintain employee history," CBP said. The agency also posted new instructions for reporting employee information.
