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").

DHS Spring Regulatory Agenda for CBP Includes Update to Vessel Repair Unit Language
May 11, 2018 by Tim Warren|Customs

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published its spring 2018 regulatory agenda for CBP. The agenda includes a first mention of a final rule involving vessel repair unit locations. CBP regulations require "that when a vessel subject to the vessel repair statute first arrives into the United States or Puerto Rico following a foreign voyage, the owner, master, or authorized agent must submit a vessel repair declaration to CBP." Currently, the vessel repair entry is filed at the Vessel Repair Unit in New Orleans, but the regulations confusingly list two other VRUs, CBP said. The final rule removes the mentions of other VRUs.

No Word From PGAs on Plans to Become Mandatory in ACE This Year, CBP Official Says
May 10, 2018 |Customs

CBP has not received word from any other partner government agencies (PGAs) that they intend to make their ACE filing requirements mandatory in 2018, a CBP official said on the agency’s biweekly ACE call held May 10. The official spoke in response to a question on whether any more PGAs will become mandatory by the end of the year, focusing on Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) “core” requirements in particular. The CBP official cautioned that, while CBP hasn’t heard anything to her knowledge, it doesn’t mean PGAs can’t in the future notify the agency of their intent to become mandatory.

CBP to Update ACE With Absolute Quota Information
May 10, 2018 |Customs

CBP will update ACE with new cargo release status messages on May 31 in support of absolute quota, the agency said in an information notice. Goods "subject to absolute quota will be held in a Quota Pending status until the Quota batch job runs each evening," the agency said. "Once the batch job has completed Quota will be allocated and statuses will be updated. Details related to specific timing of the batch job and the Quota Pending Status will be published once available." Currently, absolute quotas apply only to imports of steel from South Korea, though similar quotas will eventually apply to steel and aluminum from Argentina and steel from Brazil (see 1805020037). Other countries may also eventually be subject to quotas. CBP plans to publish a guide on the quota changes in ACE the morning of May 11, an agency official said on CBP's May 10 biweekly ACE call.
