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 Says Steel, Aluminum Import License Information Causing Problems With Entries From FTZs
July 29, 2021 |Customs

The inclusion of steel and aluminum import license information is causing ACE to reject Type 06 entries used for goods coming out of foreign trade zones and into U.S. commerce, CBP said in a July 29 CSMS message. At the direction of the Commerce Department, “CBP has removed the requirement for a license number on a Type 06 entry from an FTZ into the U.S. Customs territory,” it said. “Effective July 27, 2021, this change will no longer allow a [License/Permit Code (LPC)]=01 Steel license or a LPC=28 Aluminum license on electronic filings “when an entry summary is type 06,” the agency said. “Previous to this change, a steel/aluminum license would not have been strictly required, if present, however, it would have been tolerated. Because of this change, there may be some existing 06 entry summaries with steel/aluminum licenses that if changed by the Trade (via [post summary correction]), ACE will no longer allow the license. However, if any of these 06 entry summaries are subject to a change made by CBP, then any existing steel/aluminum license will need to be removed.”

July 23, 2021 by Brian Feito|Top News

CBP plans to begin a pilot in late spring 2022 to test potential new global business identifiers to replace its much-maligned manufacturer/shipper identifier (MID) (see 1712080041), said James Byram, executive director of CBP’s Trade Transformation Office, July 22 at CBP’s Virtual Trade Week. In the pilot, the agency will test three potential business identifiers, with the expectation that, should the pilot succeed, it will end up requiring use of two of them as an MID replacement, Byram said.
