What is ACE?
ACE = Automated Commercial Environment
(from the CBP)
The Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) is the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) commercial trade processing system designed to automate border processing, to enhance border security and foster our Nation’s economic security through lawful international trade and travel.
ACE is part of a multi-year CBP modernization effort that is being deployed in phases. ACE provides a solid technology foundation for all border security initiatives within CBP.
For ACE in 2013, CBP will also focus on this export initiative:
Automated Export System (AES) Re-engineering
