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").

October 31, 2017 by Tim Warren|Top News

CBP will allow post summary corrections to be transmitted in ACE "within 300 days of the date of entry or 15 days prior to the scheduled liquidation date, whichever date is earlier," the agency said in a notice. Previously, PSCs had to be sent within 270 days of entry and couldn't be filed within 20 days of scheduled liquidation, it said. "This change is being made to increase the amount of time a filer has to submit a PSC on entry summaries."

October 24, 2017 |Customs

SAN DIEGO -- CBP is working on a rewrite of the foreign-trade zone regulations in 19 CFR 146 through engagement with the Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee (COAC), CBP Deputy Director of Field Operations Anne Maricich said Oct. 23 during the National Association of Foreign-Trade Zones (NAFTZ) conference. “The advisory stature of COAC will allow the revisions of the 146 to be elevated as a CBP priority, a level that’s not often seen,” she said. “We will remain engaged with NAFTZ representatives to review future operational requirements and business processes to improve the movement of freight in and out of foreign-trade zones.” The government aims to achieve greater efficiency through modernizing FTZ requirements and eliminating “wasteful and redundant” FTZ regulations, Maricich said.

CPSC Running Internal Study of Potential ACE Data Elements, as ACE Funding Sources Remain Uncertain

SAN DIEGO -- The Consumer Product Safety Commission in July began a yearlong internal study of the usefulness of obtaining certain compliance data prior to import, CPSC Office of Import Surveillance Deputy Director Jim Joholske said Oct. 23 during the National Association of Foreign-Trade Zones (NAFTZ) conference. The follow-up study, which began following completion of the six-month e-filing alpha pilot in December 2016 (see 1701270043), involves collecting existing product safety certificates of compliance each time a regular import exam is conducted, as part of an effort to determine the potential benefits of having the certificates’ data elements, pre-arrival, Joholske said.
