CSMS MESSAGE 11-000081 DESCRIBES THE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT THAT WILL BE EFFECTIVE ON 08/01/2011.

CSMS MESSAGE 11-000081 INDICATED THAT THERE WOULD BE SEVEN TARIFF NUMBERS THAT WOULD NOT INCLUDE A ‘CKG’ UNIT OF MEASURE TO INDICATE THE ‘COW’S MILK SOLIDS CONTENT’. THE FEDERAL REGISTER WITH THE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT RULES DID NOT INDICATE THAT THESE TARIFF NUMBERS SHOULD HAVE A ‘CKG’ UNIT OF MEASURE BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HAD TWO UNITS OF MEASURE ASSOCIATED WITH THEM. THE SEVEN TARIFF NUMBERS LISTED WITHOUT THE ‘CKG’ INDICATION ARE THE FOLLOWING:

0401100000

0401305000

0401307500

2105001000

2105002000

2202902400

2202902800

CBP HAS DECIDED TO ADD A THIRD UNIT OF MEASURE ‘CKG’ TO THE ABOVE TARIFF NUMBERS. THE ADDING OF THE ‘CKG’ UNIT OF MEASURE TO THE ABOVE TARIFF NUMBERS SHOULD ASSIST THE TRADE IN IMPLEMENTING THE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT FOR THESE TARIFF NUMBERS.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE, THE USTIC TARIFF BOOK AND TARIFF WEBSITE WILL NOT INDICATE THE THIRD UNIT OF MEASURE FOR THE ABOVE TARIFF NUMBERS. THE THIRD UNIT OF MEASURE IS BEING ADDED TO THE CBP TARIFF DATABASE TO ASSIST THE TRADE IN IMPLEMENTING THE AGRICULTURAL MARKET SERVICE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT.

SYSTEM QUESTIONS RELATED TO THIS MESSAGE SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO YOUR ASSIGNED CLIENT REPRESENTATIVE OR TO ACS SPECIALIST TONY CASUCCI AT 571-468-5053 (ANTHONY.CASUCCI@DHS.GOV).

FROM: FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION

SUBJECT: SCHEDULED OASIS LINK MAINTENANCE ON JUNE 18, 2011

THE LINK BETWEEN FDA's OASIS IMPORT SYSTEM AND ACS WILL BE DOWN FOR MAINTENANCE ON SATURDAY JUNE 18, 2011 STARTING AT APPROXIMATELY 03:00 AM EST (0300), AND IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO BE BACK UP UNTIL 7:00 AM EST (0700). AS A RESULT, FDA WILL BE OPERATING UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE SCENARIO 1 CONTINGENCY. ACS, OASIS AND PNSI ARE ALL OPERATIONAL, BUT THE LINK BETWEEN ACS AND OASIS IS DOWN ON FDA'S SIDE OF THE SYSTEM INTERFACE. THIS OUTAGE WILL PREVENT SUBMITTERS WHO FILE VIA ABI/ACS FROM RECEIVING PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION AND WILL PREVENT CBP FROM AUTOCHECKING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION FOR ABI/ACS FILERS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED, ABI FILERS MAY DECIDE TO WAIT OUT THE OASIS DOWNTIME IF THEY DETERMINE THAT THE TIMELINESS OF PRIOR NOTICE WILL NOT BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. FILERS WHO CHOOSE THIS OPTION SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT THEY REMAIN RESPONSIBLE UNDER SECTION 801(M) OF THE ACT AND UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE FINAL RULE FOR FILING TIMELY PRIOR NOTICE. ABI TRANSMISSIONS RECEIVED BY FDA DURING THE DOWNTIME WILL BE QUEUED AND PROCESSED ONCE THE MAINTENANCE IS COMPLETED. PRIOR NOTICE (PN) CONFIRMATION NUMBERS WILL NOT BE TRANSMITTED BACK TO FILERS DURING THE DOWNTIME.

ALTERNATIVELY, FILERS MAY SUBMIT PRIOR NOTICE VIA PNSI, IN WHICH CASE THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER MUST ACCOMPANY THE ARTICLE OF FOOD (21 CFR 1.279(G)). IF PRIOR NOTICE IS SUBMITTED THROUGH PNSI, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE, INCLUDING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER AND TIME STAMP, BE PRESENTED TO CBP OFFICERS FOR CARGO RELEASE. IF THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE IS NOT PRESENTED, THIS MAY DELAY CARGO RELEASE WHILE THE CBP OFFICER, WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO ACCESS OASIS, CONTACTS FDA FOR VERIFICATION OF THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER(S) AND TIME OF SUBMISSION.

IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, AND CONFIRMATION HAS ALREADY BEEN RECEIVED, THE SUBMITTER MAY PROCEED WITH PRIOR NOTICE USING THE STANDARD PROCESS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS AND CONFIRMATION HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT, RATHER THAN RESUBMITTING VIA PNSI, SUBMITTERS SHOULD PROVIDE TO CBP OFFICERS, AT THE TIME OF CARGO RELEASE, AN ENDORSED (SIGNED) COPY OF THE ABI TRANSMISSION OR SOME OTHER EVIDENCE ADEQUATE TO SHOW THAT PRIOR NOTICE HAS BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS.

UPON RESTORATION OF THE INTERFACE FDA INTENDS TO PROVIDE NOTICE, VIA WEB PAGE POSTING, THAT NORMAL PROCESSING HAS RESUMED.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS DURING THIS DOWNTIME, PLEASE CONTACT THE FDA'S PRIOR NOTICE CENTER AT (866) 521-2297.

SUBJECT: Update on FDA Delays in Entry Processing

On June 9, 2011, CSMS 11-000124 was issued indicating FDA's awareness of system slowness causing delays in entry processing. The FDA identified a technical issue that prevented some entries/lines from being staged for admissibility review. In turn, entry reviewers were not prompted to make an admissibility decision.

Measures were taken to address this issue. Entries/lines found to be hung up have been pushed to admissibility review. It does not appear that entries/lines continue to be prevented from being staged for admissibility review.

Please contact the local FDA District office if you have further problems.

TITLE: OGA-FDA OASIS DOWN ON 6/21/11

TO: ALL FILERS

FROM: FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION

SUBJECT: SCHEDULED OASIS DOWNTIME ON June 21, 2011

FDA's OASIS import system will be down for maintenance on Tuesday June 21, 2011 starting at approximately 01:00 am (0100), and is not anticipated to be back up until 2:00 am (0200). As a result, FDA will be operating under the prior notice scenario 2 contingency. During the period when OASIS is down ACS, PNSI and the link between ACS and OASIS will be operational. However, the OASIS downtime will prevent submitters who filed via ABI from receiving prior notice confirmation and would prevent CBP from auto-checking the prior notice confirmation for ABI filers. If prior notice has not already been submitted, ABI filers may decide to wait out the OASIS downtime if they determine that the timeliness of prior notice will not be adversely affected. Filers who choose this option should understand that they remain responsible under section 801(m) of the act and under the prior notice final rule for filing timely prior notice. ABI transmissions received by FDA during the downtime will be queued and processed once the maintenance is completed. Prior notice (PN) confirmation numbers will not be transmitted back to filers during the downtime.

Alternatively, filers may submit prior notice via PNSI, in which case the prior notice confirmation number must accompany the article of food (21 CFR 1.279(g)). If prior notice is submitted through PNSI, FDA and CBP recommend that the PNSI confirmation page, including the prior notice confirmation number and time stamp, be presented to CBP officers for cargo release. If the PNSI confirmation page is not presented, this may delay cargo release while the CBP officer, without being able to access oasis, contacts FDA for verification of the prior notice confirmation number(s) and time of submission.

If prior notice has already been submitted via ABI/ACS prior to the interface outage, and confirmation has already been received, the submitter may proceed with prior notice using the standard process. If prior notice has already been submitted via ABI/ACE and confirmation has not been received prior to the interface outage, FDA and CBP recommend that, rather than resubmitting via PNSI, submitters should provide to CBP officers, at the time of cargo release, an endorsed (signed) copy of the ABI transmission or some other evidence adequate to show that prior notice has been submitted via ABI/ACS. If you have any questions during this downtime, please contact the FDA's Prior Notice Center at (866) 521-2297.

Thu, 23 Jun 2011 11:51:47 -0500

Automated Broker Interface

Under the U.S.-Canada Softwood Lumber Act of 2008 (SLA), importers of subject softwood lumber or softwood lumber products are required to consult the Department of Commerce’s International Trade Administration (ITA) webpage http://ia.ita.doc.gov/sla2008/sla-index.html to calculate the appropriate export charge. The export charge rates are posted on a monthly basis.

This memo serves to clarify confusion surrounding the SLA export charge rates reflected on the ITA web page. Recently, some of the posted export charge rates on the ITA webpage were inaccurate and did not reflect the additional collections as a result of arbitration between the United States and Canada. Specifically, the export charge rate for imports from the Canadian Provinces of Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan was listed as 5% instead of the correct rate of 15%. The information on the ITA web page has now been updated to reflect appropriate export charges. Importers and CBP personnel should continue to reference the ITA web page per the SLA when determining export charges. Any Softwood lumber entries that are held by the ports for the reasons associated with the additional 10% export charge should be processed as entered as we will be updating the information during the reconciliation process.

The Canadian Government has advised CBP of the near termination of the additional collections under the arbitration. In the upcoming weeks, CBP will be working closely with the appropriate corresponding agencies to advise field personnel and the trade community as to when the settled amount under the arbitration has been satisfied and collection of the 10% export charge is no longer required. Subsequent guidance to the field will be issued once collection is terminated.

In addition, the Canadian Government has commenced its collection of additional export charges for the regions of Ontario and Quebec. The proposed amendments to the SLA require all exporters of softwood lumber products to the United States having a region of origin of Ontario to pay an additional export charge of 0.1% and those having a region of origin of Quebec to pay an additional export charge of 2.6%. Thus far, added collections for Ontario and Quebec have been remitted on a voluntary basis as the necessary legislation in Canada has not been enacted. These added collections should be accepted if included in the export charge rate, but are not required to be included until the amendments to the Act become law in Canada.

Questions concerning Softwood Lumber should be directed to Katrina Chang, Chief, Trade Agreements Branch at SWL2008@dhs.gov or Christina Alvez, Trade Agreements Branch.

CSMS# 11-000142 - Post-Importation Preference Program Claims under 19 USC 1520(d) with a Classification Change, Instructions for the Trade Community
Thu, 23 Jun 2011 17:16:35 -0500

Automated Broker Interface

In the interest of informed compliance and processing uniformity, this memorandum clarifies the administration of a 19 USC 1520(d), post-importation preference claim that includes a classification change. Post-importation preference claims allow for a preference claim to be made within one year from the date of importation, if a claim was not made at the time of importation. This statutory provision does not allow for other changes and/or amendments to an entry summary; therefore importers and brokers must use existing regulatory provisions to make corrections to an entry summary.

When a post-importation preference program claim under 19 USC 1520(d) is presented on an unliquidated entry which also requires a Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) classification change, the tariff change should be presented as a Post Entry Amendment (PEA) or Post Summary Correction (PSC) in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), simultaneously with the 520(d) submission.

PSC functionality was deployed in ACE effective June 4, 2011. Therefore, 520(d) claims should reference any PSC filed in ACE to ensure any classification changes are taken into account prior to the processing of the 520(d). For ACE entry summaries importers or filers should also add language to the PSC Filing Explanation Record that confirms the filing of the 520(d) claim.

When a post-importation preference program claim under 19 USC 1520(d) is presented on a liquidated entry which also requires a HTSUS classification change, the tariff change should be presented as a 19 USC 1514, protest, simultaneously with the 520(d) submission.

Copies of this memorandum should be made available to importers, brokers, and other interested parties.

Questions regarding post-importation claims should be directed to Katrina Chang, Chief, Trade Agreements Branch or Seth Mazze, Trade Agreements Branch at FTA@dhs.gov. Entry summary and processing questions should be directed to Laurie Dempsey, Chief, Entry Summary and Drawback Branch at (202) 863-6509.

Fri, 24 Jun 2011 07:34:55 -0500

Automated Broker Interface

Pursuant to publication in today’s Federal Register (76 FR 37136), CBP announced the following:

- Deployment of new Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Entry Summary, Accounts and Revenue (ESAR IV) capabilities. Specifically, importers will be allowed to use the Automated Broker Interface (ABI) to file post-summary corrections (PSCs) of certain preliquidation ACE entry summaries. As the PSC procedure replaces the existing Post Entry Amendment (PEA) hard copy process for entry summaries filed under ACE, PEA procedures will no longer be accepted for entry summaries filed in ACE effective September 22, 2011.

- Modification to the Post Entry Amendment (PEA) test to reflect that PEA procedures will no longer be accepted for entry summaries filed in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). In addition, this notice clarifies that for any PEA which results in Antidumping/Countervailing Duty (AD/CVD) cash deposits due (or bond, if allowed), such deposits or bond are due with the submission of the PEA. Lastly, this notice announces that the PEA test is extended for an additional three-year period.

Please refer to the specific language in these Notices for additional details and/or eligibility requirements.

ISF Submission Types 5 and 6 will NOT expire on June 30, 2011, and currently, there is no scheduled date for the retirement of these codes. A notice will be sent in advance when an expiration date is again set. Furthermore, the FAQ's will be updated in the near future to remove these dates.

On July 13, 2011, new capabilities were deployed via the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) with respect to Importer Security Filing (ISF). These new capabilities include the following:

o Importers now have access through ACE to the ISF progress reports that have to date only been available via email subscription.

o These ISF progress reports, previously available only to importers, are now also available via ACE to ISF filers and sureties.

o Importers who file 12 or fewer ISF transactions per year will now be able to file and track their ISF transactions directly via the ACE portal, without the need to file via the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI).

ACE will continue to deliver additional, valuable ISF capabilities. The following capabilities are planned for delivery later in 2011:

o Capability to query the status of an ISF transaction by transaction number and by bill of lading number, and

o Capability for Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) Tier 3 importers to query individual ISF transactions

For more information, please refer to the attached Information Notice on ISF Portal Capabilities and the updated Managing User Access User Guide which explains how to grant and revoke user access to the ISF Portal.

Referenced CSMS Messages 11-000114 and 11-000150 advised PMS Filers of the calculation for the PMS month designation is based on the RELEASE DATE of the shipment. This CSMS message addresses quota entries.

The ACS ABI CATAIR document will have the "DESCRIPTION" field changed to include Quota entries to the below language for PMS month designation:

The numeric month (MM) when the entry summary will appear on the preliminary periodic monthly statement.

Ex. The merchandise was released in the month of June, then this field will be entered as 07 (July).

Quota entries should use the date of presentation instead of release date for determining the PMS month.

SUBJECT: SCHEDULED OASIS DOWNTIME ON JULY 30, 2011

FDA's OASIS IMPORT SYSTEM WILL BE DOWN INTERMITTENTLY FOR MAINTENANCE ON SATURDAY JULY 30, 2011 STARTING AT APPROXIMATELY 03:00 AM (0300), AND IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO BE BACK UP UNTIL 10:00 AM (1000). AS A RESULT, FDA WILL BE OPERATING UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE SCENARIO 2 CONTINGENCY. DURING THE INTERMITTENT HALF HOUR (1/2 HOUR) PERIODS WHEN OASIS IS DOWN ACS, PNSI AND THE LINK BETWEEN ACS AND OASIS WILL BE OPERATIONAL. HOWEVER, THE OASIS DOWNTIME WILL PREVENT SUBMITTERS WHO FILED VIA ABI FROM RECEIVING PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION AND WOULD PREVENT CBP FROM AUTO-CHECKING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION FOR ABI FILERS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED, ABI FILERS MAY DECIDE TO WAIT OUT THE OASIS DOWNTIME IF THEY DETERMINE THAT THE TIMELINESS OF PRIOR NOTICE WILL NOT BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. FILERS WHO CHOOSE THIS OPTION SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT THEY REMAIN RESPONSIBLE UNDER SECTION 801(M) OF THE ACT AND UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE FINAL RULE FOR FILING TIMELY PRIOR NOTICE. ABI TRANSMISSIONS RECEIVED BY FDA DURING THE DOWNTIME WILL BE QUEUED AND PROCESSED ONCE THE MAINTENANCE IS COMPLETED. PRIOR NOTICE (PN) CONFIRMATION NUMBERS WILL NOT BE TRANSMITTED BACK TO FILERS DURING THE DOWNTIME.

ALTERNATIVELY, FILERS MAY SUBMIT PRIOR NOTICE VIA PNSI, IN WHICH CASE THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER MUST ACCOMPANY THE ARTICLE OF FOOD (21 CFR 1.279(G)). IF PRIOR NOTICE IS SUBMITTED THROUGH PNSI, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE, INCLUDING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER AND TIME STAMP, BE PRESENTED TO CBP OFFICERS FOR CARGO RELEASE. IF THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE IS NOT PRESENTED, THIS MAY DELAY CARGO RELEASE WHILE THE CBP OFFICER, WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO ACCESS OASIS, CONTACTS FDA FOR VERIFICATION OF THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER(S) AND TIME OF SUBMISSION.

IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, AND CONFIRMATION HAS ALREADY BEEN RECEIVED, THE SUBMITTER MAY PROCEED WITH PRIOR NOTICE USING THE STANDARD PROCESS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACE AND CONFIRMATION HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT, RATHER THAN RESUBMITTING VIA PNSI, SUBMITTERS SHOULD PROVIDE TO CBP OFFICERS, AT THE TIME OF CARGO RELEASE, AN ENDORSED (SIGNED) COPY OF THE ABI TRANSMISSION OR SOME OTHER EVIDENCE ADEQUATE TO SHOW THAT PRIOR NOTICE HAS BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS.

SUBJECT: INCREASED SURVEILLANCE OF PAPAYAS FROM MEXICO

FDA is informing US importers of intended increased surveillance of papayas imported from Mexico.

Recent analytical results of samples of Mexican papayas indicate an elevated number of microbiological contamination violations, specifically salmonella violations. These findings have led FDA to issue guidance to our field offices for an immediate increase in surveillance sampling of Mexican papayas. We are taking these measures to provide better protection to US consumers of these products.

Importers of Mexican papayas should expect delays in FDA releases for Mexican papayas, as we increase the rate at which entries are sampled by FDA for microbiological analysis. The guidance issued includes means to lessen the surveillance of shipments from growers with repeated non-violative analytical results.

FDA will adjust our surveillance guidance as indicated by the results of this increased sampling.

Tue, 09 Aug 2011 14:08:12 -0500

Automated Broker Interface

The purpose of this message is to provide clarification on the RLF "Hybrid Process."

The RLF final rule includes language to enable “alternative filing” of paper documents, if CBP cannot accept additional information electronically (see 19 CFR 1414(b)(3)(B) and 19 CFR 143.45). Although RLF was intended to be a completely electronic process, the regulation introduces a “hybrid” RLF concept. The hybrid process provides for CBP review of certain other government agency (OGA) paper forms in conjunction with the RLF data in ACS or ACE.

PLEASE NOTE: The hybrid process does not apply to all commodities. Due to certain OGA constraints, there are specific types of merchandise that continue to be ineligible for entry via RLF. For example, the hybrid RLF process does not apply to those entries for which an original document is required by another government agency. A list of forms currently precluded from the RLF hybrid process is attached to this message. This list is subject to change. CBP will notify users of changes to this list via the Cargo System Messaging Service (CSMS). Additionally, RLF transmissions continue to be limited to entry types 01 and 11.

The following process will be used for RLF entries with OGA paper document requirements:

• The hybrid documentation will be presented at the port of entry. The hybrid package will consist of the CBP Form 3461 or equivalent release document, the CBP Form 7501 (where applicable), notated with the statement, “Remote entry on file”, along with the OGA paper document(s). CBP will review the Automated Invoice Interface (AII) information in ACS.

• For those forms which are eligible under the hybrid process, ports have the discretion to determine the manner in which the filer provides the OGA documentation, i.e., whether a fax is acceptable or if the filer must deliver the documentation to a designated location at the port. Consequently, it will be necessary for those interested in submitting hybrid RLF entries to reach out to the RLF coordinator at the port of entry to determine the port's process prior to submission. A list of RLF coordinators can be found on-line at: http://www.cbp.gov/linkhandler/cgov/trade/trade_programs/remote_location_filing/rlf_coordinator_list.ctt/rlf_coordinator_list.xls

• Filers are not to present hybrid documents prior to the RLF entry summary transmission in ACS or ACE.

The ‘hybrid process’ detailed here is intended to be an interim process to bridge the technology gap until further electronic functionality is available for required supplemental documentation. RLF was intended to be a paperless process, and CBP continues to work towards the inclusion of all supporting documentation within an electronic submission. As CBP includes documents in new electronic formats, use of that new functionality will be required for RLF participation and acceptance of the hybrid submissions will be discontinued for those documents.

TO: ALL FILERS

FROM: FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION

SUBJECT: SCHEDULED OASIS AND PNSI DOWNTIME ON AUGUST 13, 2011

FDA's OASIS import system AND Prior Notice System Interface(PNSI) will be down intermittently on Saturday August 13, 2011 to deploy updates being made to these systems in response to the Food Safety Modernization Act. The systems will be down starting at approximately 03:00 am (0300), and are not anticipated to be back up until 5:00 am (0500) EST. As a result,FDA will be operating under the prior notice scenario 3 contingency. However, it is expected that during the approximately half hour (1/2 hour) period when PNSI is down, ACS and the link between ACS and OASIS will be operational. Conversely, during the approximately half hour (1/2 hour) period when OASIS is down, PNSI and the link between ACS and OASIS will be operational.

The PNSI downtime will prevent filers from providing prior notice using the PNSI system. If prior notice has been submitted via PNSI prior to the outage, the confirmation number must accompany the article of food (21CFR 1.279(g)). In addition, FDA and CBP recommend that the submitter also provide the PNSI confirmation page, including the prior notice confirmation number and time stamp, to CBP officers for cargo release. If the PNSI confirmation page is not provided, this may delay cargo release while the CBP officer, without being able to access OASIS, contacts FDA for verification of the prior notice confirmation number(s)and time of submission. If prior notice has not been submitted prior to the PNSI outage, filers can chose to submit prior notice via ABI/ACS or wait out the PNSI downtime if they determine that the timeliness of prior notice will not be adversely affected. Filers who choose to wait should understand that they remain responsible under section 801(m) of the Act and under the prior notice final rule for filing timely prior notice.

The OASIS downtime will prevent submitters who filed via ABI from receiving prior notice confirmation and would prevent CBP from auto-checking the prior notice confirmation for ABI filers. If prior notice has already been submitted via ABI/ACS prior to the system outage, and a prior notice confirmation number has been received, the submitter may proceed with prior notice using the standard process. However, if prior notice is submitted via ABI/ACS and a prior notice confirmation number is not received prior to the outages, submitters should provide to CBP officers, at the time of cargo release, either an endorsed (signed) copy of the ABI transmission showing the prior notice submission, or some other evidence adequate to show that prior notice has been submitted via ABI/ACS. If prior notice has not already been submitted, ABI filers may submit prior notice via PNSI or decide to wait out the OASIS downtime if they determine that the timeliness of prior notice will not be adversely affected. Filers who choose to wait should understand that they remain responsible under section 801(m) of the Act and under the prior notice final rule for filing timely prior notice. ABI transmissions received by FDA during the downtime will be queued and processed once the maintenance is completed. Prior notice (PN) confirmation numbers will not be transmitted back to filers during the downtime.

If you have any questions during this downtime, please contact the FDA's Prior Notice Center at (866) 521-2297.

Subject: Addition of Affirmation of Compliance Codes for Prior Notice

On August 13, 2011, FDA will deploy changes to several of its information technology systems including the Prior Notice System Interface (PNSI) and the Operational and Administrative System for Import Support (OASIS) in order to receive and process the new prior notice information required by section 304 of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). On May 5, 2011, FDA published an interim final rule “Information Required in Prior Notice of Imported Food” (76 FR 25542). The interim final rule amended the Agency’s regulations on prior notice of imported food. The change requires a person submitting prior notice of imported food, including food for animals, to report the name of any country to which the article has been refused entry.

Submitters using ABI/ACS will be able to report the name of any country to which the article of food has been refused entry via affirmation of compliance (AofC) codes in ACS consumption entry transmissions. AofC codes have been established to allow the reporting of up to five (5) country names on each prior notice. The codes are: RF1, RF2, RF3, RF4, and RF5. The qualifier for these codes should be an ISO country (or area) code.

The new AofC codes cannot be used in ABI WP transmissions at this time. Until such time that ACS or its successor system can accommodate such transactions, submitters needing to report any country to which the article has been refused entry must use PNSI or submit the prior notice as part of an ACS Consumption entry in ABI.

The effective date of the interim final rule was July 3, 2011. However, FDA published Guidance for Industry in June 2011 which stated the changes to the information technology systems would not be completed by the July 3, 2011 effective date. As such, the agency did not intend to enforce the interim final rule’s requirement that the prior notice submission include the name of any country to which the article has been refused entry until September 6, 2011. Although submitters will be able to submit this information starting on August 13, 2011, enforcement discretion for this information will still be employed until the September 6, 2011 end date.

If you have any questions, please contact the FDA'S Prior Notice Center at (866) 521-2297.

Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:48:32 -0500

Automated Broker Interface

FDA is informing US importers of the issuance of Import Alert #21-17, "Countrywide Detention Without Physical Examination of Papaya from Mexico."

FDA has taken this action to provide better protection to US consumers of these products. Recent analytical results of samples of papayas from Mexico indicate an elevated number of microbiological contamination violations, specifically salmonella violations. These salmonella violations encompass a number of different growers and regions in Mexico.

Import Alert #21-17 indicates detention without physical examination (DWPE) of all fresh papayas from Mexico because they appear to be adulterated due to the presence of salmonella. In order to obtain an FDA release for an entry of papayas from Mexico, the entry will need to be shown to be free from salmonella, through laboratory analysis by a third-party laboratory. This action takes effect immediately, and is applicable to all entries of papayas from Mexico currently in the entry process; and all future entries of papayas from Mexico. With the issuance of this Import Alert, FDA will cease our increased sampling activities (indicated in CSMS 11-000174, dated August 4, 2011).

Importers should expect delays in FDA releases for papayas from Mexico.

The Import Alert provides additional background information and information on submitting requests for exemption from this countrywide DWPE. All Import Alerts can be found on FDA's internet site, www.FDA.gov, at the following link: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/CMS_IA/importalert_721.html

Questions regarding this action by FDA can be directed to the contacts indicated in the Import Alert. Questions related to the entry processing of specific entries should be directed to the FDA District covering the port of entry.

TITLE: OGA-FDA OASIS DOWN ON 8/27/11

TO: ALL FILERS

FROM: FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION

SUBJECT: SCHEDULED OASIS (INTERMITTENT) DOWNTIME ON August 27, 2011

FDA's OASIS IMPORT SYSTEM WILL BE DOWN INTERMITTENTLY FOR MAINTENANCE ON SATURDAY August 27, 2011 STARTING AT APPROXIMATELY 03:00 AM (0300), AND IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO BE BACK UP UNTIL 8:30 AM (0830)EDT. AS A RESULT, FDA WILL BE OPERATING UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE SCENARIO 2 CONTINGENCY. DURING THE INTERMITTENT HALF HOUR (1/2 HOUR) PERIODS WHEN OASIS IS DOWN ACS, PNSI AND THE LINK BETWEEN ACS AND OASIS WILL BE OPERATIONAL. HOWEVER, THE OASIS DOWNTIME WILL PREVENT SUBMITTERS WHO FILED VIA ABI FROM RECEIVING PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION AND WOULD PREVENT CBP FROM AUTO-CHECKING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION FOR ABI FILERS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED, ABI FILERS MAY DECIDE TO WAIT OUT THE OASIS DOWNTIME IF THEY DETERMINE THAT THE TIMELINESS OF PRIOR NOTICE WILL NOT BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. FILERS WHO CHOOSE THIS OPTION SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT THEY REMAIN RESPONSIBLE UNDER SECTION 801(M) OF THE ACT AND UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE FINAL RULE FOR FILING TIMELY PRIOR NOTICE. ABI TRANSMISSIONS RECEIVED BY FDA DURING THE DOWNTIME WILL BE QUEUED AND PROCESSED ONCE THE MAINTENANCE IS COMPLETED. PRIOR NOTICE (PN) CONFIRMATION NUMBERS WILL NOT BE TRANSMITTED BACK TO FILERS DURING THE DOWNTIME.

ALTERNATIVELY, FILERS MAY SUBMIT PRIOR NOTICE VIA PNSI, IN WHICH CASE THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER MUST ACCOMPANY THE ARTICLE OF FOOD (21 CFR 1.279(G)). IF PRIOR NOTICE IS SUBMITTED THROUGH PNSI, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE, INCLUDING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER AND TIME STAMP, BE PRESENTED TO CBP OFFICERS FOR CARGO RELEASE. IF THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE IS NOT PRESENTED, THIS MAY DELAY CARGO RELEASE WHILE THE CBP OFFICER, WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO ACCESS OASIS, CONTACTS FDA FOR VERIFICATION OF THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER(S) AND TIME OF SUBMISSION.

IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, AND CONFIRMATION HAS ALREADY BEEN RECEIVED, THE SUBMITTER MAY PROCEED WITH PRIOR NOTICE USING THE STANDARD PROCESS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACE AND CONFIRMATION HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT, RATHER THAN RESUBMITTING VIA PNSI, SUBMITTERS SHOULD PROVIDE TO CBP OFFICERS, AT THE TIME OF CARGO RELEASE, AN ENDORSED (SIGNED) COPY OF THE ABI TRANSMISSION OR SOME OTHER EVIDENCE ADEQUATE TO SHOW THAT PRIOR NOTICE HAS BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS DURING THIS DOWNTIME, PLEASE CONTACT THE FDA'S PRIOR NOTICE CENTER AT (866) 521-2297.

Over the weekend of Aug 27-28, CBP deployed programming to support the M1 ocean/rail manifest program in ACE. Inadvertently, a part of this programming caused some ACS ABI entry summaries to receive a "DB error has occurred" rejection of the summary transmission.

This issue has been corrected as of approximately 11:00am, EDT, on August 29. Filers who have not yet resubmitted entries for which the last response was "DB error has occurred" should retransmit the entry to ABI.

Questions regarding this message may be directed to your ABI client representative.

Subject: FDA Import Entry Review Process - Affirmations of Compliance

The United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA), Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), has issued a follow up letter to their March 24, 2011, Letter to Industry about Import Entry Review Process. The purpose of the September 6, 2011, follow up letter is to provide specific recommendations to facilitate the import entry review process for medical and non-medical radiation emitting electronic products. These recommendations will directly impact your company’s ability to import medical and non-medical radiation emitting electronic products, electronic product components, parts and finished product into the US.

The USFDA is attempting to help expedite the admissibility process for submissions that contain the correct Affirmations of Compliance (AofC) and other requested data. If appropriately submitted, this practice will increase the likelihood that your shipment may be processed based on import system screening and not held for further USFDA entry review.

The September 6, 2011, Letter to Industry about Import Entry Review Process is available at:

Previous communications have identified access to the Shared Reports folder as one of the many benefits of the e-Manifest: Rail and Sea (M1) release. In addition details on the Shared Reports folder are included in all Running ACE Reports user guides and the Web Based Training on e-Manifest: Rail and Sea. Since the deployment of e-Manifest: Rail and Sea functionality, U. S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has discovered an issue related to the Shared Reports folder. Users will not have access to the folder until the issue is resolved. A CSMS will be issued when access to the folder becomes available.

CSMS# 11-000231 - Problems with Truck and Ocean Manifest since e-Manifest Rail and Sea Deployment

09/30/2011 07:36 PM EDT

Truck Manifest

The deployment of e-Manifest Rail and Sea on August 27, 2011 has revealed some CBP system transition issues that have primarily affected a small number of truck and ocean manifest service providers.

As a result of this deployment the EDI filing accounts of a very few truck manifest service centers have been temporarily disabled on several occasions, resulting in rejection of all of their EDI transactions until CBP was able to restore the accountsï¿½ function.

In addition, there have been a very few ocean manifest service centers who have experienced slow response times as a result of this deployment.

System fixes are being identified and implemented to correct all of these issues.

CBP apologizes to those impacted.

As a reminder, sets which are classifiable in accordance with GRI 3(b) or 3(c) of the HTS, report in column 30 the HTS number from which the rate of duty for the set is derived.

Precede this number with an SPI of "X."

Each article in the set (including the article designated with a prefix of "X") should be reported on a separate line as if it were separately classified.

Precede these HTS numbers with an SPI of "V."

Report the quantity and value attributed to each article associated with the "V" SPI.

All other reporting requirements including, but not limited to, quota, visa, licensing, and other government agency requirements, should be reported along with the appropriate HTS number preceded with an SPI of "V."

Further information on the X and V codes are found in Appendix B of the CATAIR (see page B-33). Additional information on how to classify sets can be found in the informed compliance publication, ï¿½Classification of Sets,ï¿½ located on CBP.gov.

10/19/2011 04:20 PM EDT

Automated Broker Interface

Title: FDA End-dating Affirmation of Compliance (AofC) Codes BPL and BFL

The Food and Drug Administration will end-date two AofC codes effective October 24, 2011.

The codes being end-dated are BPL - Biologic Product License Number and BFL - Biologic Establishment License Number. FDA originally announced the creation of two new AofC codes (STN - Submission Tracking Number and BLN - Biologics License Number) for our Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research and the end-date of the referenced codes back in 2008. The new codes were added but unfortunately the end-dates were not put in place for BPL and BFL and those codes are being transmitted in error.

See the definitions of AofCs STN and BLN which were added in 2008:

STN - Submission Tracking Number

The qualifier for this code should be the Submission Tracking Number issued by FDAï¿½s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research for the licensed biological product identified in the FDA line. The Submission Tracking number is the biologics license application number.

BLN - Biologics License Number

The qualifiier for this code should be the four digit U.S. Biologics License Number issued by FDAï¿½s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research to the manufacturer of the biological product identified in the FDA line. The Biologics License Number is the U.S. license number (not the STN number).

10/21/2011 10:56 AM EDT

Automated Broker Interface

New FDA Affirmation of Compliance (AofC) Code - VOL

The Food and Drug Administration has added a new AofC Code. The code is VOL = Volume. This code and qualifier can be used to communicate the container volume of a low acid canned food (LACF) product packaged in a container that does not have traditional can dimensions.

When transmitting a line for a LACF product packaged in a container that does not have can dimensions, please convey the container volume using this AofC code. For example, when sending data for banana pureee packaged in a 220 gallon container. Send AofC VOL with a qualifier of 220.

FDA's script to perform an automated database look-up of CFSAN's LACF database has been modified to look for this new AofC code and qualifier. Do not use this AofC in place of sending can dimensions when the product is packaged in a container with the traditional two or three can dimensions. Use of this code in place of can dimensions, when can dimensions are part of the LACF scheduled process, will result in a failure of the automated database look-up.

Since the M1 drop an e214 filer cannot arrive an in-bond associated with an air waybill using the FZ application. CBP/OIT programmers are aware of the issue, have identified the problem and are in the process of delivering the fixes to the production environment. However, it is the responsibility of the bonded carrier to ensure the arrival of the in-bond and not the FTZ operator/e214 filer unless their bond has been obligated as the bonded carrier.

The in-bond can be arrived by submitting the in-bond documentation to the local CBP office. This is a CBP issue and the local ports should continue to arrive the in-bonds until CBP/OIT delivers the programming to production.

Also, with the M1 drop when an admission is being ï¿½Replacedï¿½ (FT process) the FTZ online system is suppressing the delete notification but an M1 notification program is sending out the notification in an untimely manner because the program runs periodically and does not realize that these event notifications should not be sent in this particular process. CBP/OIT is aware of the issue as well and is in the process of delivering the fixes to the production environment.

CBP/OIT intends to have the fixes delivered to the production environment by the end of the month.

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA A PROCLAMATION

1. Section 506A(a)(1) of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (the "1974 Act") (19 U.S.C. 2466a(a)(1)), as added by section 111(a) of the African Growth and Opportunity Act (title I of Public Law 106-200) (AGOA), authorizes the President to designate a country listed in section 107 of the AGOA (19 U.S.C. 3706) as a "beneficiary sub-Saharan African country" if the President determines that the country meets the eligibility requirements set forth in section 104 of the AGOA (19 U.S.C. 3703), as well as the eligibility criteria set forth in section 502 of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2462).

2. Section 104 of the AGOA authorizes the President to designate a country listed in section 107 of the AGOA as an "eligible sub-Saharan African country" if the President determines that the country meets certain eligibility requirements.

3. Section 112(c) of the AGOA, as added in section 6002 of the Africa Investment Incentive Act of 2006 (Division D, title VI of Public Law 109-432) (19 U.S.C. 3721(c)), provides special rules for certain apparel articles imported from "lesser developed beneficiary sub-Saharan African countries."

4. Pursuant to section 104 of the AGOA and section 506A(a)(1) of the 1974 Act, I have determined that the Republic of Cï¿½te d'Ivoire (Cï¿½te d'Ivoire), the Republic of Guinea (Guinea), and the Republic of Niger (Niger) meet the eligibility requirements set forth or referenced therein, and I have decided to designate Cï¿½te d'Ivoire, Guinea, and Niger as eligible sub-Saharan African countries and as beneficiary sub-Saharan African countries.

5. Cï¿½te d'Ivoire, Guinea, and Niger each satisfy the criterion for treatment as a "lesser developed beneficiary sub-Saharan African country" under section 112(c) of the AGOA.

6. Section 604 of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2483), as amended, authorizes the President to embody in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) the substance of relevant provisions of that Act, or other acts affecting import treatment, and actions taken thereunder.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including but not limited to section 104 of the AGOA

(19 U.S.C. 3703), and title V and section 604 of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2461-67, 2483), do hereby proclaim that:

(1) Cï¿½te d'Ivoire, Guinea, and Niger are designated as eligible sub-Saharan African countries and as beneficiary sub-Saharan African countries.

(2) In order to reflect this designation in the HTS, general note 16(a) to the HTS is modified by inserting in alphabetical sequence in the list of beneficiary sub-Saharan African countries "Republic of Cï¿½te d'Ivoire", "Republic of Guinea", and "Republic of Niger".

(3) For purposes of section 112(c) of the AGOA, Cï¿½te d'Ivoire, Guinea, and Niger are lesser developed beneficiary sub-Saharan African countries.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-fifth day of October, in the year of our Lord two thousand eleven, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-sixth.

BARACK OBAMA

CSMS# 11-000266 - Generalized System of Preference (GSP) Extended with Retroactivity, Instructions for the Trade Community

10/26/2011 10:52 AM EDT

Automated Broker Interface

On October 21, 2011, the President signed H.R. 2832, which extends the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program through July 31, 2013. The GSP program, having lapsed December 31, 2010, has been retroactively renewed allowing for a refund of all duties paid on GSP-eligible merchandise that was entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption during the period from January 1, 2011 through November 4, 2011.

Accordingly, filers shall be entitled to file GSP-eligible entry summaries, utilizing the Special Program Indicator (SPI) ï¿½A,ï¿½ without the payment of duty for shipments entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption effective November 5, 2011.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will begin processing refunds immediately for entries filed via the Automated Broker Interface (ABI) with the Special Program Indicator (SPI) ï¿½A,ï¿½ for duties deposited on GSP-eligible goods during the period from January 1, 2011 through November 4, 2011. Importers are advised to contact the appropriate port of entry for inquiries about the status of their refunds.

For ACE entry summaries where no SPI was transmitted, retroactive GSP claims must be made via post-summary correction, where applicable, i.e., if the entry meets the time requirements for PSC filing. GSP refunds for all other entry summaries (e.g., warehouse withdrawals, change liquidations, re-liquidations, and suspended entry summaries) will be processed in accordance with normal liquidation or re-liquidation procedures. A liquidation or re-liquidation may be made with respect to an entry only if a request is filed with CBP no later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of the GSP renewal. Requests for refunds must be made in writing and must contain sufficient information to enable CBP to locate the entry. To expedite the refund, CBP recommends that the request indicate the entry number, line number, and requested refund amount. Claims may be made via post-entry amendment or protest, as long as they meet the applicable time requirements. Any amounts owed by the United States pursuant to the liquidation or re-liquidation of an entry of an article will be paid, without interest.

Copies of this memorandum should be made available to Port Directors, Assistant Port Directors, Supervisory Import Specialist, Import Specialist, Importers, Brokers, and other interested parties.

Questions regarding this guidance, with respect to the GSP program, should be directed to Katrina Chang, Chief, Trade Agreements Branch, or Christina Alvez, Trade Agreements Branch at FTA@dhs.gov. Entry summary and refund processing questions should be directed to Laurie Dempsey, Chief, Entry Summary and Drawback Branch at (202) 863-6509.

CSMS# 11-000273 - FDA Review of Private Laboratory Analyses for Papayas

10/28/2011 06:38 PM EDT

Automated Broker Interface

Date: October 28, 2011

Subject: FDA Review of Private Laboratory Analyses for Papayas

On August 25, 2011, FDA issued Import Alert #21-17, "Countrywide Detention Without Physical Examination of Papaya from Mexico."

As indicated in Import Alert #21-17, FDA believes detention without physical examination (DWPE) of all fresh papayas from Mexico is appropriate based on the presence of salmonella. In order to obtain an FDA release for an entry of papayas from Mexico, the importer has to demonstrate that each entry is free from salmonella. In most instances, a laboratory analysis conducted by a third-party laboratory will be sufficient to justify release of the entry.

However, FDA review of third-party analytical packages has revealed numerous issues related to the analyses conducted and the information provided. Such issues could render the analytical package unacceptable, which would result in a refusal of admission for the entry. Rather than taking this step, FDA's laboratory and compliance personnel have been working with the third-party laboratories to reconcile these issues so that the analytical package adequately documents that the product does not contain salmonella.

In addition to working with the third-party laboratories on individual submissions, FDA is also trying to get the third-party laboratories to a point where FDA has sufficient confidence the third-party laboratories can consistently submit acceptable analytical packages. Once a particular third-party laboratory has achieved this, their analytical packages will not require such a stringent review and the entry process may be expedited for some shipments.

This collaboration between FDA laboratory personnel and third-party laboratories takes time and is a reason for perceived delays in the review process. FDA will not issue releases based upon third-party laboratory analyses that are not acceptable. Importers may continue to expect delays in FDA releases of papayas from Mexico until their third-party laboratory can demonstrate an ability to consistently submit acceptable analytical packages.

Unfortunately, FDA does not recommend specific private laboratories. FDA is encouraging importers to verify a private laboratoryï¿½s capabilities, quality controls, and successful submission history of Salmonella analysis for papaya with the Agency. FDA is working as expeditiously as possible to get the third-party laboratories to correct their problems so that the third-party laboratories will submit acceptable analytical packages; however, the responsibility ultimately rests with the importer to use sound judgment in the selection of a third-party laboratory and the third-party laboratories to submit acceptable analytical packages.

10/26/2011 11:58 AM EDT

Automated Broker Interface

On October 21, 2011, the President signed H.R. 3078, which extends both the Andean Trade Preference Act (ATPA) and the Andean Trade Promotion and Drug Eradication Act (ATPDEA) programs through July 31, 2013. The ATPA/ATPDEA programs, having lapsed February 12, 2011, have been retroactively renewed, for Ecuador and Colombia, allowing for a refund of all duties paid on ATPA/ATPDEA-eligible merchandise that was entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption while the program was lapsed, from February 13, 2011 through November 4, 2011. Benefits under the ATPA/ATPDEA will commence on November 5, 2011, 15 days after the October 21, 2011, Presidential signing date.

Accordingly, filers will be entitled to file ATPA/ATPDEA-eligible entry summaries, utilizing the Special Program Indicators (SPI) ï¿½J, J+ï¿½ without the payment of duty for shipments entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption effective November 5, 2011. For ACE entry summaries, retroactive ATPA/ATPDEA claims must be made via post-summary correction, where applicable, i.e., if the entry meets the time requirements for PSC filing.

ATPA/ATPDEA refunds for all entries entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption during the lapse period will be processed upon receipt of a valid refund request. Claims may be made via post-entry amendment (PEA) or protest, as long as they meet the applicable time requirements. In order to process a refund, CBP requires the following information:

A. A statement that the letter is a request for a refund as provided for under H.R.

3078;

B. The entry numbers and line items for which refunds are being requested; and

C. The amount to be refunded for each line item; and where multiple entries are

involved, the total amount due for all entry summaries.

A valid liquidation or re-liquidation request must be filed with CBP within 180 days of the ATPA/ATPDEA renewal date. Any amounts owed by the United States pursuant to the liquidation or re-liquidation of an entry of an article shall be paid without interest.

Copies of this memorandum should be made available to Port Directors, Assistant Port Directors, Supervisory Import Specialist, Import Specialist, Importers, Brokers, and other interested parties.

Note that a memorandum addressing ATPA concerns for quotas and textiles will be issued shortly. CBP is awaiting information from the Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements (CITA) prior to issuing this direction.

Questions regarding this guidance should be directed to Katrina Chang, Chief, Trade Agreements Branch, or Christina Alvez, Trade Agreements Branch at FTA@dhs.gov.

October 31, 2011

MEMORANDUM FOR: Directors, Field Operations

FROM: Executive Director, Trade Policy and Programs

Office of International Trade

SUBJECT: GUIDANCE: Revision of Post-Importation Preference Program Claims under 19 USC 1520(d) with a Classification Change Memorandum of June 23, 2011, Instructions for the Trade Community

NOTE: ï¿½This procedure is currently applicable to the following agreements: the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Chile Free Trade Agreement (CFTA), the Oman Free Trade Agreement (OFTA), the Dominican Republic-Central American Free Trade Agreement (DR-CAFTA), and the Peru Trade Promotion Agreement (PTPA).ï¿½

This memorandum revises the aforementioned memorandum of June 23, 2011, and seeks to clarify the administration of a 19 USC 1520(d), post-importation preference claim that includes a classification change or, under certain limited situations, a value change. The 19 USC 1520(d), post-importation preference claim, allows for a preference claim to be made within one year of the date of importation if a claim was not made at entry summary. It is the only mechanism to make a post-importation preference claim on certain Free Trade Agreements . This statutory provision only allows changes to the entry summary that bear directly on the preference claim. This includes a tariff classification or valuation change on a line in which a preference claim is being made, if that valuation change enables the good to meet the terms of the preference program. The limited scope of 19 USC 1520(d) is made clear in internal advice 227127, December 10, 1996, page 2, paragraph 3, excerpted here:

ï¿½We find that Customs may reliquidate an entry to refund duties pursuant to 19 USC 1520(d) only for claims which bear directly on the issue of preferential treatment for the goods in question.ï¿½

It further elaborates on page 4, paragraph 3, below:

ï¿½Accordingly, a post-importation duty refund claim may be granted where the claim involves classification, valuation or other issues that bear directly on the issue of whether the good would have qualified as an originating good. For example, classification must impact on whether the merchandise satisfies a specific rule of origin, while valuation must relate to the regional value content calculation.ï¿½

Only classification or valuation changes that result in a line meeting a preference program rule of origin are permitted under 19 USC 1520(d). Such claims should be processed without requiring a Post Entry Amendment (PEA), a Post Summary Correction (PSC) or a 19 USC 1514, Protest.

With respect to the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), the PSC functionality was deployed on June 4, 2011. For ACE entry summaries, filers should also add language to the PSC Filing Explanation Field that confirms the filing of the 19 USC 1520(d) claim.

Denials should be voided for any post-importation claims which were denied per the June 23, 2011 memorandum that otherwise would have been allowed under this revised guidance.

Copies of this memorandum should be made available to importers, brokers and other interested parties.

Questions regarding post-importation claims should be directed to Katrina Chang, Chief, Trade Agreements Branch or Seth Mazze, Trade Agreements Branch at FTA@dhs.gov. Entry summary and processing questions should be directed to Laurie Dempsey, Chief, Entry Summary and Drawback Branch at (202) 863-6509.

As announced in CSMS Message #11-000223, CBP will be conducting two ACE technical seminars for trade software developers, one focused on ACE ocean and rail manifest and one focused on ACE ABI functionality. Each seminar is expected to take two days.

The ocean and rail software seminar will focus on CAMIR and X12 message formats that are required as part of the M1 Ocean and Rail Manifest Deployment. This seminar will provide the opportunity to have an open dialogue with CBP on the technical issues surrounding the programming changes, related policy, process, and information on the upcoming Trade Pilot test.

The second seminar will target ABI participants and will focus on current and future ACE deployments including ACE Entry Summary Filing, Post Summary Corrections, PGA Message Set, Document Image System and Cargo Release. This seminar will provide the opportunity to have an open dialogue with CBP on the technical issues surrounding the programming changes and related policy and process.

We are in the process of procuring hotel space for these seminars in the D.C. Metro area. The planned dates for these seminars are November 29-30 and December 1-2, 2011, respectively. The anticipated cost is $120 per person, per two-day seminar.

Once the contract with the hotel is in place, we will provide you with information pertaining to hotel reservations and instructions for the pay.gov registration fee process. As a reminder, no more than 3 representatives from each company may participate.

Please direct any questions you may have to Susan Maskell (susan.maskell@dhs.gov) and Josephine Baiamonte (Josephine.baiamonte@dhs.gov)

CSMS# 11-000290 - Drawback Compliance Measurement (DCM) Program

11/29/2011 03:47 PM EST

Automated Broker Interface

The purpose of this message is to provide information regarding a drawback compliance program, which U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is currently testing. The Drawback Compliance Measurement (DCM) program was developed in response to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Inspector General annual financial statements audit findings. The audit has consistently reported drawback as a material weakness for CBP internal controls over financial reporting. This in turn results in a significant deficiency for DHS. The audit findings highlight the manual nature of drawback processing and the associated risk of erroneous drawback payments. Without a formal drawback measurement program, CBP is unable to defend the accuracy of current drawback processes. DCM will enable CBP to establish drawback compliance information based on a sound statistical methodology, as well as determine potential revenue loss, for a more comprehensive risk picture.

CBP will run a full-year DCM test in fiscal year 2012. After the one-year period, CBP will evaluate the DCM procedures and results, in order to determine next steps. The sample pool for claims reviewed under DCM consists of drawback claims which liquidated in the previous month. Evaluation of liquidated claims enables CBP to fully assess compliance with drawback requirements, since all the underlying import entries are finalized. Although review is performed on liquidated claims, DCM is not an audit. The DCM review will be conducted by a drawback specialist.

This test may result in an increase in requests to the drawback filer for constructed paperless entries. However, a DCM review should not be an additional burden for the claimant in terms of substantiating documentation. Please note that as part of the test, certain drawback claims may be reviewed by an office other than the one at which the drawback claim was filed. If claimants receive requests for information, they should respond to the requesting office.

If you have questions regarding this subject, please contact Laurie Dempsey, Chief, Entry, Summary and Drawback Branch at (202) 863-6509, Laurie.Dempsey@dhs.gov, or Georgette Bush, International Trade Specialist, Entry, Summary and Drawback at (202) 863-6583, Georgette.Bush@dhs.gov.

CSMS# 11-000295 - OGA-FDA OASIS/MARCS DOWN ON 12/3/11

12/01/2011 09:52 AM EST

Automated Broker Interface

TO: ALL FILERS

FROM: FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION

SUBJECT: SCHEDULED OASIS/MARCS DOWNTIME ON DECEMBER 3, 2011

FDA'S MARCS/OASIS IMPORT SYSTEM WILL BE DOWN FOR MAINTENANCE ON SATURDAY DECEMBER 3, 2011 STARTING AT APPROXIMATELY 02:30AM (0230), AND IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO BE BACK UP UNTIL 11:30 AM (1130) EST . AS A RESULT, FDA WILL BE OPERATING UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE SCENARIO 2 CONTINGENCY. DURING THE PERIODS WHEN OASIS/MARCS IS DOWN ACS, PNSI AND THE LINK BETWEEN ACS AND OASIS WILL BE OPERATIONAL. HOWEVER, THE OASIS DOWNTIME WILL PREVENT SUBMITTERS WHO FILED VIA ABI FROM RECEIVING PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION AND WOULD PREVENT CBP FROM AUTO-CHECKING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION FOR ABI FILERS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED, ABI FILERS MAY DECIDE TO WAIT OUT THE OASIS DOWNTIME IF THEY DETERMINE THAT THE TIMELINESS OF PRIOR NOTICE WILL NOT BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. FILERS WHO CHOOSE THIS OPTION SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT THEY REMAIN RESPONSIBLE UNDER SECTION 801(M) OF THE ACT AND UNDER THE PRIOR NOTICE FINAL RULE FOR FILING TIMELY PRIOR NOTICE. ABI TRANSMISSIONS RECEIVED BY FDA DURING THE DOWNTIME WILL BE QUEUED AND PROCESSED ONCE THE MAINTENANCE IS COMPLETED. PRIOR NOTICE (PN) CONFIRMATION NUMBERS WILL NOT BE TRANSMITTED BACK TO FILERS DURING THE DOWNTIME.

ALTERNATIVELY, FILERS MAY SUBMIT PRIOR NOTICE VIA PNSI, IN WHICH CASE THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER MUST ACCOMPANY THE ARTICLE OF FOOD (21 CFR 1.279(G)). IF PRIOR NOTICE IS SUBMITTED THROUGH PNSI, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE, INCLUDING THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER AND TIME STAMP, BE PRESENTED TO CBP OFFICERS FOR CARGO RELEASE. IF THE PNSI CONFIRMATION PAGE IS NOT PRESENTED, THIS MAY DELAY CARGO RELEASE WHILE THE CBP OFFICER, WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO ACCESS OASIS, CONTACTS FDA FOR VERIFICATION OF THE PRIOR NOTICE CONFIRMATION NUMBER(S) AND TIME OF SUBMISSION.

IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, AND CONFIRMATION HAS ALREADY BEEN RECEIVED, THE SUBMITTER MAY PROCEED WITH PRIOR NOTICE USING THE STANDARD PROCESS. IF PRIOR NOTICE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACE AND CONFIRMATION HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE INTERFACE OUTAGE, FDA AND CBP RECOMMEND THAT, RATHER THAN RESUBMITTING VIA PNSI, SUBMITTERS SHOULD PROVIDE TO CBP OFFICERS, AT THE TIME OF CARGO RELEASE, AN ENDORSED (SIGNED) COPY OF THE ABI TRANSMISSION OR SOME OTHER EVIDENCE ADEQUATE TO SHOW THAT PRIOR NOTICE HAS BEEN SUBMITTED VIA ABI/ACS. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS DURING THIS DOWNTIME, PLEASE CONTACT THE FDA'S PRIOR NOTICE CENTER AT (866) 521-2297.

CSMS# 11-000299 - Update on Simplified Entry Pilot Test

12/02/2011 10:58 AM EST

Automated Broker Interface

On November 9, 2011, a Federal Register Notice (FRN), 76 FR 69755, was published announcing U.S. Customs and Border Protectionï¿½s (CBP) plan to conduct a pilot test of Simplified Entry (SE) for the Air Mode of Transportation. Among the criteria set forth in the Notice, trade members were advised that applications must be received by November 17, 2011 and that due to Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) requirements, only 9 participants would be selected to participate in the pilot.

A total of 40 applications were received in response to the referenced Notice. CBP would like to thank everyone who responded to the FRN and submitted applications to participate in the pilot test. Of that total, CBP has selected 9 applicants who met all of the selection criteria set forth in the Notice.

CBP is in the process of notifying qualifying applicants of their selection to participate in the Simplified Entry pilot test. Once all applicants have been notified, CBP will conduct a meeting of all the participants and will determine next steps for pilot implementation. CBP will issue another CSMS message to announce the commencement of the pilot test. Any future expansion of the test, the timing of submission of the data, or messaging between filers and CBP, will be announced via a separate Federal Register notice.

12/08/2011 09:40 AM EST

Automated Broker Interface

U.S. Customs and Border Protection requested that users not run the new ï¿½Multi-Modal Manifestï¿½ (MMM) reports when e-Manifest: Rail and Sea was deployed in August, 2011. Until the data conversion was completed, the reports would not return data. The data conversion has now been completed and users can begin running MMM reports.

MMM reports are located under ï¿½Public Folders.ï¿½ Rail and sea carriers will have access to all reports in the ï¿½Multi-Modal Manifestï¿½ folder. Brokers will have access to all reports in the ï¿½Trade Reportingï¿½ sub-folder while importers will have access to one report in the ï¿½Trade Reportingï¿½ sub-folder.

There will be two categories of MMM reports: (1) twenty-four hour reports will be refreshed nightly and will contain the latest version of the data; (2) two hour reports will contain any data that was created or changed within the past two hours. These reports will show all versions of the data for the past 30 days. The ï¿½Trade Reportingï¿½ sub-folder contains all of the two hour refresh reports.

Initially only 18 months of data will be loaded for the 24 hour refresh reports. Eventually the 24 hour refresh reports will contain up to 5 years of data.

12/08/2011 10:26 AM EST

Automated Broker Interface

In the near future, a number of updates to the CAMIR and ANSI X12 sea and rail Interface Guidelines documents posted on the CBP website, will occur.

In ANSI X12 rail Customs Manifest Bill of lading Type Code code 12 empty container page 17 - 18

In ANSI X12 US Customs Manifest with Security Filing Bill of Lading Type Code code 12 empty container page 17-18 in Header preceding list of codes

In CAMIR Input to Customs and Border Protection Bill of Lading Status indicator code 2 empty container Note 2 page INP 30:

The following will be added to the definition for empty container bill type:

The empty container bill type can only be used for carrier-owned/leased instruments of international traffic.

In accordance with the CBP regulations at 19 CFR 10.41a and 19 CFR 113.66, entities requesting release (without entry) for instruments of international traffic must have a Type 3a Instruments of International Traffic bond and must have an application approved by the CBP Port Director. In order to transmit the empty container bill type and request release without entry for IIT, the IMPORTER must comply with the CBP regulations at 19 CFR 10.41a and 19 CFR 113.66. Where the IIT is completely empty and the carrier is requesting release under the CBP regulations at 19 CFR 10.41a, the principal on the type 3A CBP bond must be the applicant for release of the holder or container designated as IIT. In cases where the empty container bill type is used, the carrier transmitting the information is the importer.

Advance electronic cargo information for carrier-owned/leased IIT must be received by CBP via Vessel AMS no later than 24 hours prior to vessel arrival at the first U.S. port. Advance electronic cargo information for shipper/consignee-owned or shipper/consignee-leased IIT must be transmitted in the same manner as information for any other revenue shipment and the transmission time frames (no later than 24 hours prior to loading in the foreign port) for revenue shipments apply.

Truck Manifest

On Monday, December 12, 2011, Occupy Wall Street Oakland (OWS Oakland) is expected to join cities including San Diego, Los Angeles, Portland and Tacoma for a West Coast port shutdown. Organizers are planning to stage mass protests to shut down (blockade) west coast ports similar to the shutdown action taken at the Port of Oakland on November 2, 2011. The Port of Oakland has advised CBP that the decision to shut down various terminals will not be made prior to 1400 today, thus the situation remains fluid.

The following steps will be taken to ensure the least impact to the importing community if it becomes necessary to close the CBP facility in the Port of Oakland during the protest.

Brokers and Importers can submit documents that would normally be submitted to the East Bay Station at either the West Bay Cargo Facility at 648 Westfield Rd., San Francisco or at the San Francisco Customs House at 555 Battery St., Entry Control, San Francisco.

Appointments can be made to for vessel entrance and clearances by calling the Duty Supervisor at (415) 725-9463.

AT-CET and Trade will continue to conduct examinations at all accessible locations.

Importers and brokers should contact the East Bay Station Monday for a status update prior to sending documents to the facility. If you can not reach someone in the East Bay please call Steve Baxter (415) 782-9206 or Jim Farrell (415) 782-9204 at the Customs House.

CSMS# 11-000309 - Update on GSP Refunds

12/12/2011 01:57 PM EST

Automated Broker Interface

The Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) was retroactively renewed to allow for a refund of all duties paid on GSP-eligible merchandise that was entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption during the period from January 1, 2011 through November 4, 2011 (see also CSMS 11-000266).

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has begun processing refunds for entries filed via the Automated Broker Interface (ABI) with the Special Program Indicator (SPI)A, for duties deposited on GSP-eligible goods during the period from January 1, 2011, through November 4, 2011. For entries filed with the SPI indicator that have reached their liquidation date, CBP will reliquidate with the retroactive GSP benefits.

Claims for retroactive GSP benefits, on non-ABI entries or entries filed without the SPI A, must be filed by May 3, 2012, and should be filed at the port where the goods were entered. We recommend that importers monitor refunds to ensure receipt of applicable duties. Claims for retroactive GSP refunds do not have a separate 180-day protest period, in addition to the time period specified in H.R. 2832.

CSMS# 11-000313 - Immediate Delivery Procedures at Year-End

12/15/2011 01:05 PM EST

Automated Broker Interface

The Office of International Trade is issuing a blanket authorization for Immediate Delivery (ID) procedures for merchandise to be released on or after December 15, 2011 and until December 31, 2011, in accordance with 19 CFR ï¿½ 142.21(i). The authorization is offered to filers who may elect to take advantage of the interim Harmonized Tariff Schedule changes, which take effect on or after January 1, 2012.

This blanket authorization does not apply to absolute quota merchandise and merchandise moved under an immediate transportation entry (type 61). Tariff rate quota merchandise previously authorized for ID release under 19 CFR ï¿½ 142.21(e) may still be released under ID; however, the entry summary shall be presented within the time specified in 19 CFR ï¿½ 142.23, or within the quota period, whichever expires first.

In those instances where the paper CBP Form 3461/CBP Form 3461(ALT) is used as the entry document and importers wish to elect ID, a line must be drawn through the word ï¿½ENTRYï¿½ on the document. ABI entry transmissions, including the ï¿½paperlessï¿½ provisional message, will establish the desired entry date by using the estimated entry date in the summary transmission (ï¿½EIï¿½ transmission). This will identify the change from ï¿½Entryï¿½ to ï¿½Immediate Deliveryï¿½ and will allow filers to elect a date of entry in order to take advantage of tariff changes or special programs. Under ID procedures, the entry/entry summary must be filed within 10 working days after release. This blanket authority extends only to shipments released December 15, 2011 and until December 31, 2011. No grace period will be granted for the purpose of timely filing ID entry summaries under this one-time allowance.

Questions regarding this policy should be addressed to Ms. Laurie Dempsey, Chief, Entry, Summary, and Drawback Management at (202) 863-6509.

TITLE: OGA-FDA Affirmation of Compliance, KIT- imported kit of finished devices and DDM- Domestic Device Manufacturer

TO: ALL FILERS

FROM: FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION

SUBJECT: Affirmation of Compliance, KIT- imported kit of finished devices and DDM- Domestic Device Manufacturer

FDA has created two new Affirmations of Compliance (AofC), KIT and DDM, to address shipments of kits containing finished devices imported into the United States (U.S.).

In order to clearly identify that the finished devices are part of a kit, a new AofC code KIT has been developed. Additionally, the new AofC code DDM will be used to facilitate identification of the manufacturer of any individual device within the kit that was manufactured in the U.S. (American Goods Returned). DDM is only to be used for those U.S. manufactured devices declared as part of a kit.

DEV/DFE should continue to be used for the foreign manufacturers or exporters of individual finished devices within the kits.

The AofC code, title, and description are provided below. Use of this code affirms that the product identified in a FDA line meets the requirements specific to the code. While use of the code is voluntary, transmission will help expedite the entry review process.

CODE TITLE/DESCRIPTION

KIT Imported kit of finished devices

The code KIT should be used for all individual devices within kits imported in the US. There is no associated qualifier.

DDM Domestic Device Manufacturer

The code and qualifier should be the device registration number issued by CDRH for the US firm manufacturing the product identified in the FDA line. DDM should be used only in conjunction with KIT.

Additionally, some kits contain drug products which must comply with applicable labeling and approval requirements including but not limited to application number, registration, and listing. For example, the foreign firm's drug registration per FFDCA 510(i) must include the known US importers. If the registration does not include the importer or consignee, then detention may be indicated.

Kit importers should consider obtaining the Affirmation of Compliance information from their vendors to minimize the need for manual review of applicable lines by the FDA.

NOTE: The information in this transmission only applies to medical device kit importers who have been specifically informed by CBP that they must transmit every device contained in a kit on a separate line (also referred to as 'X' and 'V' lines). Importers of medical device kits who transmit only the kit as a single line should continue to use the affirmations of compliance codes DEV (foreign manufacturer medical device registration #) and LST (medical device listing #) applicable for the medical device kit.

For the CATAIR Chapter CRL, Cargo Release Application, Identifier RR, the R7 Output record will be modified to send the new PGA Manifest Hold status message(s) when appropriate for an entry.

For the CATAIR Chapter CMQ, Cargo Manifest Status Query, Application Identifier IS will be modified to add the new R7 Output record, which will be added to send the new PGA Manifest Hold status message(s) when appropriate for an entry.

The new Appendix U will be added with the list of all PGA Manifest Hold status messages that can be sent in the R7 record.

As always, these changes will be included in the 2012 USHTS. However, at this time, please contact your client representative for questions regarding specific records.

Adjustments required by the verification of the 2011 Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) were made as well.

The modified records are currently available to all ABI participants and can be retrieved electronically via the procedures indicated in the CATAIR. For further information about this process, please contact your client representative.

CBP is aware of several issues trade participants are encountering when submitting ISF data to CBP in particular with the status notifications. There have been several cases of unsolicited status notifications to trade participants as well as a failure to send S1 bill on file messages where appropriate. CBP is currently working to address these issues. A follow up CSMS message will be issued once a fix has been implemented.
