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").

April 27, 2017 |Customs

CBP deployed "an optional Perishable Goods Indicator (PER)" in ACE, the agency said in a CSMS message (here). "The purpose of this indicator is to provide the Trade filer the opportunity to electronically mark the Cargo Release submission as covering perishable merchandise," CBP said. "The presence of the PER indicator enables the CBP system to bring the shipment to the attention of CBP in the Port of Entry as 'PERISHABLE.'" The indicator won't have any "effect on the system processing of the Cargo Release transaction and its presence does not append or supersede existing CBP policy with respect to the handling of perishable shipments," the agency said.
