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 Boston Will Take 'Augmented Enforcement Measures' After Uptick in ISF Violations, Notice Says
September 22, 2017 |Customs

CBP Boston announced “augmented enforcement measures” in an effort to increase compliance with Importer Security Filing requirements, in a Public Information Notice issued Sept. 22. “Recently, the Port of Boston has seen an upward trend in ISF violations resulting in the delays of cargo clearance by CBP,” it said. “As part of CBP’s strategy to facilitate safe and secure trade, liquidated damage claims may be assessed for failure to comply with reporting requirements,” the notice said. “CBP may also withhold the release or transfer of cargo until all Importer Security Filing reporting requirements have been satisfied,” it said.

CBP Updates Notice on Frequency of Exam Inquiries for LA/Long Beach
September 21, 2017 |Customs

CBP's Los Angeles/Long Beach office issued a Sept. 20 public bulletin on "the responsibilities associated with the examination of all merchandise, containers (empty or packed), pallets, and other packaging material imported into or exported from" the U.S. The bulletin is largely the same as one it issued in 2012, but now includes a mention of the Document Image System in ACE and advises filers to make sure that entry documents are uploaded in DIS "to avoid unnecessary delays." Unlike the 2012 notice, the new bulletin doesn't include a mention of "Compliance Measurement (CM) Examinations (stratified exams)."
