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").

No Policy Change Underway for Post-Entry FTA Preference Claims Before Liquidation, Says CBP
July 28, 2014 by Tim Warren|Top News

CBP has no plans to change policy regarding post-entry free trade agreement (FTAs) preference claims filed before liquidation, despite some industry speculation otherwise, said the CBP Office of International Trade. A recent publication from law firm Drinker Biddle said CBP headquarters is in the process of changing policy to discontinue the use of some post-import preference claims. According to Drinker Biddle lawyers James Sawyer and Beata Spuhler (here), CBP "has indicated that the ability to file Protests, and potentially [Post Entry Amendments (PEAs)], in order to claim eligibility under certain Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) may be prohibited due to a policy change within the agency."

North American Single Window Has Support, but Not Seen as a Priority, Say Mexican Officials
July 16, 2014 by Brian Dabbs|Top News

Mexican, U.S. and Canadian trade officials are fully committed to developing and implementing a unified North American single window portal for the import and export of goods, but the broader trade agenda continues to take precedent over the initiative, said Mexican trade officials at a Peterson Institute of International Economics event on July 15. The U.S. is aiming to implement its single window, the Automated Commercial Environment and International Trade Data System, by 2016 and then will turn its attention to the unified portal, said CBP deputy commissioner Kevin McAleenan in June (see 14061803).
