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 Announces Filing Procedures for Seventh Group of Products Granted Section 301 Exclusions
September 27, 2019 |Customs

CBP will add the ability in ACE for importers to file entries with the seventh group of exclusions from the first tranche of Section 301 tariffs on Sept. 29, it said in a CSMS message. Filers of imported products that were granted an exclusion (see 1909180013) should report the regular Chapter 84, 85, 87, 88 or 90 Harmonized Tariff Schedule number, as well as subheading 9903.88.14, for products subject to Section 301 duties on products from China but that have been granted an exclusion by the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative. “Importers shall not submit the corresponding Chapter 99 HTS number for the Section 301 duties when HTS 9903.88.14 is submitted,” CBP said.

CBP Postpones ACE Deployment of New Broker Management Capabilities
September 26, 2019 |Customs

A planned deployment of new Broker Management Office functionalities in ACE is being postponed until December, a CBP official said on a trade call held Sept. 26. The new capability, which “streamlines the employee reporting process for brokers, enhances messaging to the field Broker Management Officers (BMO), and automates the generation of licenses and permits in ACE,” according to the most current ACE deployment schedule (see 1909030011), had been set for deployment Sept. 28. CBP soon plans to put out more information on the new functionality, and was getting an information notice ready to be published but held back as a result of the delay, the official said. One update will be to the employee reporting worksheet, where CBP will remove the delete action, she said.
