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 LA Offers Guidance on Live Entries Filed Through ACE Cargo Release
February 24, 2016 |Customs

All live entries at the Los Angeles/Long Beach seaport filed within Automated Commercial Environment Cargo Release should go directly to CBP's financial team in Long Beach, said CBP Port Director Carlos Martel in a public bulletin on Feb. 23. "Since ACE Cargo Release is considered a paperless program, brokers/filers will only be required to submit in a green folder, CBP Form 7501 or 7501A, with a check attached to the Financial Team," said Martel. "The invoice, packing list, and remaining supporting documents shall be uploaded onto the Document Image System."

February 22, 2016 |Customs

CBP collected $37 billion in duties during fiscal year 2015, up 6.6 percent from the previous year, said CBP Commissioner Gil Kerlikowske during a Feb. 19 speech at the Tampa Bay Safety and Risk Mitigation Summit (here). The agency also processed 33 million import entries and 26.3 million cargo containers, he said. With NAFTA leading the way, "special programs and Free Trade Agreements represented approximately 27 percent of total U.S. imports, by value," Kerlikowske said.
