The E-Merchants Trade Council released on Nov. 28 a detailed “redline” of proposed changes to the customs laws that the trade group is proposing to the 21st Century Customs Framework Task Force as it works with CBP to develop draft customs modernization legislation. The document puts “into specific statutory text EMTC’s recommendations on the Customs Modernization Act of 2021,” the EMTC said in its introduction.
CBP will in 2023 begin testing two projects under the DHS Silicon Valley Innovation Program (SVIP) “that will connect CBP with trade users,” the agency said in a document released ahead of an upcoming meeting of the Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee.

CBP reminded importers that the second phase of the pocket bag fabric rule for apparel will take effect under USMCA on Jan. 1, extending the rule to apparel made from blue denim, in a CSMS message. “This provision applies to woven apparel goods of [Harmonized Tariff Schedule] Chapter 62 that are made of blue denim fabric of HTS subheadings 5209.42, 5211.42, 5212.24 and/or 5514.30, which contain a pocket or pockets,” CBP said. “If applicable, the pocket bag fabric must be formed and finished in the territory of one or more of the USMCA countries,” from yarn that “was wholly formed and finished in the territory of one or more of the USMCA countries.” The first phase of the rule -- which applies to apparel goods under chapters 61 and 62 of the tariff schedule that contain a pocket, but not to apparel of blue denim -- has been in effect since Jan. 1, 2022.
