The country of origin of software products programmed in the U.S. and Canada is the U.S. for government procurement purposes, CBP said in a final determination. Used for mobile devices and servers, the software’s open source code is written in the U.S. before the source code is further written or modified in Canada and compiled into object code in the U.S., where it is also installed onto U.S.-origin discs. “CBP has consistently held that conducting a software build -- compiling source code into object code -- results in substantial transformation,” CBP said. As the source code was compiled into object code in the U.S., the U.S. is the country of origin for U.S. procurement, CBP said.

CBP is modifying deadlines for filers to transmit post-summary corrections in cases where CBP has granted an extension of liquidation, it said in a notice. Previously, CBP had required that the filer transmit PSCs within 300 days after the date of entry, or up to 15 days prior to the scheduled liquidation date, whichever is earlier (see 1710310048). CBP now says it will create an exception to this policy in cases in which an extension of liquidation is granted, and will allow filers to transmit PSCs up to 15 days prior to the new extended scheduled liquidation date without regard to the 300-day post-entry deadline. The change takes effect Aug. 14.
