CBP added functionality in ACE for the Canada solar safeguard exemption, starting at 7 a.m. EDT on the morning of July 19, the agency said. “Importers should file entries of CSPV goods originating in Canada subject to the suspension of the solar safeguard measure using HTSUS subheading 9903.45.27 with the regular Chapter 1-97 classification. Importers shall not submit the corresponding Chapter 99 HTSUS numbers for the Section 201 duties or quotas when HTSUS subheading 9903.45.27 is used,” it said.
