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").

December 20, 2022 |Customs

CBP reminded importers that changes to tax benefits under the Craft Beverage Modernization Act take effect for entries on or after Jan. 1, including a requirement that the full internal revenue tax rate be paid at entry, with refund claims filed subsequently with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (see 2209220065), CBP said in a CSMS message. Even though the full tax must be paid, ACE will allow for payment of a lower rate, and “it is the responsibility of the importer/filer to ensure the proper IRT rate is declared and paid for imported merchandise,” CBP said. “Entries must be filed with the correct IRT as part of the importer’s obligation to exercise reasonable care and the broker’s responsibility to demonstrate responsible supervision and control over their Customs business,” the agency said.
