In a correction to an earlier news release (see 2204190039), CBP said that between Oct. 1, 2021, and the end of March 2022 it seized nearly 10,583 shipments with counterfeit goods that would have been valued at more than $1.5 billion if sold at manufacturers' retail prices. A CBP spokesperson said the earlier news release incorrectly said that volume of goods was seized during March alone.
CBP on April 22 released a new “quick reference guide” on the use of modernized CBP forms 28 (Request for Information), 29 (Notice of Action) and 4647 (Notice to Mark and/or Notice to Redeliver) in ACE. The guide includes instructions on accessing forms through modernized ACE and responding to a CBP Form 28, Form 29 or Form 4647.
CBP is extending its policy to require proof of full vaccination for COVID-19 from noncitizens and nonpermanent residents coming into the U.S. through land ports of entry from Canada and Mexico for both essential and non-essential travel, this time apparently indefinitely, it said in two notices. Limited exceptions still apply, including for minors and travelers with valid nonimmigrant visas, including B-1 business visas, who are citizens of a country with limited COVID-19 vaccine availability. Truck drivers and rail operators still aren't exempt, CBP said. Unlike previous extensions of CBP's COVID-19 policy for land ports of entry, this one doesn't include an end date. CBP and DHS didn't comment.
Functionality for five reinstated Section 301 exclusions in ACE will not be available until April 26, CBP said in a CSMS message. Due to an error in programming, ACE is still not permitting the filing of Chapter 99 duty or exclusion subheadings for tariff schedule numbers 0505.10.0050, 8412.21.0045, 8483.50.9040, 8525.60.1010 and 8607.21.1000, CBP said. Importers that entered goods subject to Section 301 tariffs under those five subheadings on or after April 12 without an associated Chapter 99 Section 301 subheading should file a post-summary correction once ACE filing capabilities are restored for the subheadings April 26, CBP said.
