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").

US Is Country of Origin for Scissor Lifts for Procurement Purposes, CBP Says
May 30, 2018 |Customs

The country of origin for imported electric scissor lifts is the U.S. for government procurement purposes, CBP said in a final determination. "We find that the imported partially assembled R Series lifts are substantially transformed as a result of the assembly operations performed" in the U.S., CBP said. "Many of the critical operations involved in completing the product, such as installing the work platforms' software, manufacturing the 'brain' of the system and attaching the modules to the product, are also performed in the United States. More importantly, 40 percent of the remaining components of the electric scissor lifts are of U.S.-origin. This includes the three control modules, which act as the 'brain' of the machine, without which the machine cannot function; batteries; the platform control box; and, the ground control panel."

Customs Lawyer Reports Increase in Wood Packaging Material Penalties
May 30, 2018 |Customs

Importers should be aware of a recent uptick in wood packaging material enforcement by CBP, Ted Murphy, a customs lawyer with Baker & McKenzie, said in a blog post. "In the past month or so, CBP has issued sizeable penalties (i.e., hundreds of thousands of dollars) to several clients who sought to import merchandise on non-compliant WPM," Murphy said. "Given the amount of the penalties being assessed (which are for the full domestic value of the imported merchandise; not just for the value of the WPM) and the lack of clarity around how much mitigation CBP will ultimately afforded (if any), this is an issue that all importers should take additional steps to address."
