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 Testing Processes to Allow for Earlier Corrections of AD/CVD Entry Errors, COAC Says
March 30, 2023 |Customs

CBP is continuing work with a “pool of entry filers” to test automated processes “that can help entry filers identify potential errors” related to antidumping and countervailing duties, Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee member Matt Zehner said at the COAC’s March 29 meeting in Seattle. The processes could potentially allow the trade to correct entries with AD/CVD at a “much earlier stage in the process,” Zehner said. The COAC and CBP also are discussing how the trade community could be better informed with AD/CVD orders requiring an importer certification, and are looking to “facilitate the entry filing of that certification” so that the certifications are “evident in ACE,” he said.

CBP should extend the maximum in-transit time for merchandise from 30 to 60 days, the Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee said in a recommendation adopted at its March 29 quarterly meeting. The extension would "harmonize that threshold across all modes" and help better accommodate movements requiring extra transit time, which would lessen the need to request extensions, the COAC said.

March 28, 2023 by Ben Perkins|Top News

CBP’s interpretation of the drawback statute and programming of its ACE Drawback Module led to an "absurd" rejection of substitution unused merchandise drawback eligibility for an importer of civil aviation equipment that disregards the basic structure of the tariff schedule, Spirit Aerosystems said in a March 24 motion for summary judgment at the Court of International Trade (Spirit Aerosystems v. U.S., CIT # 20-00094).
