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").

FDA to Temporarily Allow Filers to Submit 'Unknown' for FSVP Importer's DUNS Number, CBP Says
May 3, 2017 |Customs

The Food and Drug Administration will temporarily allow the submission of “UNK” (unknown) for the DUNS number of the Foreign Supplier Verification Program importer during the “onboarding period” after FSVP data becomes mandatory on May 30, CBP said in a CSMS message (here). The “UNK” code “should only be used if the nine-digit, site-specific DUNS number is not available at the time the entry is transmitted,” CBP said. Otherwise, FDA expects the transmission of the FSVP Importer’s DUNS number in the relevant field, it said. CBP will send out another CSMS at a later date to indicate when “UNK” will no longer be accepted, it said. “Please note: There are no additional changes to the required data elements for the Foreign Supplier Verification Program Importer,” CBP said.
