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 Warns C-TPAT Members of Increased Threat to Supply Chain Due to Instability in Egypt
May 12, 2014 by Tim Warren|Customs

The removal of Egyptian President Mohamaed Morsi has contributed to the growing threat to the supply chain in the region, said CBP in an alert to Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) members. The political instability in Egypt has "significantly increased the threat that terrorist groups will carry out an attack against critical supply chain elements in the country and its surrounding waterways, including the Suez Canal," said the C-TPAT alert. "In the nine months since President Morsi’s ouster, terrorist groups in Egypt have demonstrated a heightened intent to attack international supply chains in the country." An attack on a cargo ship transiting the Suez Canal would be a high-profile target for terrorists and has the "ability to disrupt the approximately eight percent of world trade that passes through the waterway each year." CBP advises C-TPAT members to reassess risk factors for shipments originating in Egypt or transiting through Egypt and minimize container drop times, among other things.

May 9, 2014 by Tim Warren|Customs

CBP offered information on testing methods available for support of duty preference claims for crude oil imports in a CSMS message. "The primary mechanism for verification of preference claims for petroleum and its derivative products is through production records and/or other relevant documentation that support the claim," said CBP. The tests "can be used if CBP officials determine that additional information is necessary to substantiate preference claims for crude oil and certain straight-run petroleum distillates," the agency said.
