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").

NCBFAA Says CBP Commercial Invoice Requirements Differ From Actual Practice
November 4, 2020 by Tim Warren|Top News

CBP's information collection for commercial invoices “indicates that there is a transaction with a price already agreed upon that the foreign seller and U.S. buyer will pay,” but that's not always true, the National Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association of America said in comments to CBP on a proposed extension of the information collection (see 2009290038). “There often are shipments that are consigned, leased, etc. where the parties have not established a price to be paid and other commercial invoice information may not be available,” the association said. NCBFAA suggested that CBP's regulations should instead “require all the information normally provided on a commercial invoice on an as needed basis and when appropriate to the transaction.”
