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 to Automate Manifest Confidentiality Requests
August 23, 2019 |Customs

CBP will streamline its processing of vessel manifest confidentiality requests by allowing for electronic submissions, it said in an Aug. 22 notice. Vessel manifest information is frequently used by trade data companies, such as Panjiva, Datamyne and Import Genius. "Currently, any importer, consignee, or exporter may request confidential treatment of their name and address on inward and outward vessel manifests via a manual email request that typically takes 60-90 days to be processed," CBP said. "The new enhancement will automate this process via an online tool, located on CBP.gov, reducing the processing time of confidentiality requests to as little as 24 hours." Also, CBP said "the new tool will enable companies and individuals to directly input all applicable name variations into the Vessel Manifest Confidentiality request tool."
