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").

NMFS, CBP Delay Enforcement of Shrimp and Abalone Data Filing Requirements
February 25, 2019 |Customs

The National Marine Fisheries Service and CBP will continue a period of "informed compliance" through April 1 for entries of shrimp and abalone required to include data for the NMFS Seafood Import Monitoring (SIM) Program, CBP said in a CSMS message. The agencies previously announced that enforcement of the requirements would begin March 1 (see 1812180017). A list of Harmonized Tariff Schedule codes that require SIM data "has recently been updated to incorporate revisions and additional HTS codes within the scope of SIM," CBP said. "NMFS has determined that this change and extension of the informed compliance period is appropriate to provide opportunity for more engagement with brokers and importers as a result of limitations to NMFS to conduct outreach in early 2019." The HTS "codes applicable to this mandate to file NMFS SIM program data will be updated with an NM8 flag for SIM," CBP said. "The list of 3 alpha codes will also be updated. These updates will be in CERT beginning February 26, 2019 and are expected to be completed by March 1, 2019. The updates will be in PROD beginning April 2, 2019 and will be completed no later than April 5, 2019."

CBP Updates ACE Guide With Info on TSCA Importer Certs for Composite Wood Beginning March 22
February 22, 2019 |Customs

CBP updated its ACE Environmental Protection Agency supplemental guidelines with information on Toxic Substances Control Act importer certifications required under composite wood formaldehyde standards beginning March 22, it said in a CSMS message. “The changes are on pages 157-159, and address sample message sets, allowable disclaim codes, and the TSCA certification that should be filed for these commodities,” CBP said. “There are approximately 450 additional HTS codes for composite wood products that will be flagged with an EP7 (TSCA certification 'may be required' to be filed) code. This flagging will begin in the Certification (CERT) environment no earlier than February 22, 2019. The flagging will begin in Production (PROD) starting March 22, 2019,” CBP said. Under regulations issued by the EPA in 2016 (see 1607280021), importers of composite wood products, including composite wood products that are “articles" under CBP's TSCA regulations, have to file certifications at entry that the goods comply with TSCA regulations, beginning March 22.
