CBP released a new frequently asked questions document on the upcoming Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act Region Alert in ACE, set for deployment on March 18 (see 2212210041). Once it's in effect, “if no postal code is transmitted when it is flagged by the system as a required field, the record will remain in reject status and will not be accepted in the Cargo Release system,” CBP said in the FAQ. If an incorrect postal code is submitted, filers may transmit a replacement “R” or “C” record prior to the shipment’s arrival, the agency said. Importers should enter the street-level, rather than the city-level postal code, unless there is no postal code available for the specific street, CBP said.

CBP will add a new feature in ACE that will "support" FDA accepting port of entry changes through the system, it announced in a CSMS message March 2. The changes to ACE will be tested in the ACE certification environment starting March 3, and deployed to the production environment no earlier the April 15, CBP said. CBP and FDA also are having discussions on other options for port of entry changes and will post another CSMS message noting any changes, CBP said in an update March 3.
