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's Jan. 14 ACE Deadline Also Mandatory Date for Statements, ISF
December 12, 2016 |Customs

CBP’s Jan. 14 mandatory use date for drawback, reconciliation, duty deferral and liquidation in ACE will also be the date that the ACE transition occurs for statements and Importer Security Filings (ISF), CBP said in a CSMS message (here). However, the Jan. 14 deployment does not include Manufacturer ID Add, because “this capability must be deployed at the same time as Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) Admissions (e214s).” Also, the ACE Product Code query will be removed from and no longer supported in ACE, CBP said.

December 9, 2016 by Brian Feito|Top News

CBP will require filing in ACE beginning on Jan. 14 for drawback and duty deferral entries (here) and reconciliation entries (here), it said. As of that date, filing in the Automated Commercial System for drawback, duty deferral and reconciliation will no longer be available, it said. CBP had previously mentioned the drawback deadline, and said it is targeting mid-January for other post-release functions including reconciliation, liquidation, duty deferral, collections and statements (see 1612010041).

NMFS Sets New ACE Filing, Recordkeeping and Permit Requirements for High-Risk Seafood Imports
December 8, 2016 |Top News

The National Marine Fisheries Service is setting new filing requirements at time of entry for imports of certain species of seafood the agency has deemed high-risk, in a final rule (here). Conceived as part of an administration-wide strategy to combat illegal, unreported and unregistered (IUU) fishing and seafood fraud (see 1503160016), filers will have to submit via ACE certain data elements and electronic documents with information on the fisher, the fish and how it was fished, in order to improve traceability of imports of the high-risk species. The importer of record must also maintain records on the chain of custody of their seafood imports, and obtain an International Fisheries Trade Permit for the high-risk species.

Incoming Administration Expected to Bring Greater Enforcement Focus to CBP
December 7, 2016 by Brian Bradley|Top News

The incoming Trump administration could mean more funding and a greater enforcement focus for CBP, but the prospect of stricter trade enforcement could complicate day-to-day operations, analysts said in recent interviews. The presidential transition will cost the trade community mainly in terms of immediate uncertainty within industry and between the U.S. and its trading partners, as well as any regulatory “adjustments” that CBP might make, said David Aguilar, former CBP acting commissioner and current principal at Global Security and Innovative Strategies. But CBP’s trade funding and basic structures like the Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee will likely remain intact, he said.
