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").

ACE 2.0, 21CCF, Unified Cargo Processing Part of CBP's Green Trade Efforts, Officials Say
July 12, 2023 by Noah Garfinkel|Top News

ACE 2.0 and the 21st Century Customs Framework are "absolutely key" to moving forward with CBP's Green Trade Strategy "with the urgency that is required as we globally fight climate change," CBP Executive Assistant Commissioner AnnMarie Highsmith said at a July 12 press conference. Highsmith said both initiatives will allow for improved traceability to aid sustainability efforts and, alongside improved CBP cargo processing at ports, help move goods more quickly across the border.

Treasury Dept. Regulatory Agenda Mentions Effort to Improve Prior Disclosure Process
July 10, 2023 by Brian Feito|Customs

The Treasury Department published its spring 2023 regulatory agenda for CBP. There are no mentions of any new trade-related rulemakings, though the agency did move two rules off its agenda to a lower-priority list of planned long-term actions. One of the rules would finalize in the customs regulations the increase of the de minimis level from $200 to $800 under the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015. The other would amend CBP's regulations on disclosure of information regarding merchandise bearing suspected counterfeit trademarks by creating "a procedure for the disclosure of information otherwise protected by the Trade Secrets Act to a trademark owner when merchandise bearing suspected counterfeit trademarks has been voluntarily abandoned."

APHIS Announces Messaging Changes for Cargo at Plant Inspection Stations
July 7, 2023 by Noah Garfinkel|USDA

The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service plant inspection stations (PIS) will on Aug. 7 begin the use of entry status notifications to "communicate directly with filers," APHIS announced July 7. Filers no longer will receive an automated "may proceed" message, instead getting a message such as "Data Under Review," "Hold Intact" and "Data Rejected," APHIS said. Only after the inspection process is completed will filers receive a "May Proceed" message, APHIS said.
