\"ACE<\/a>UPDATE on ACE: Delay – CBP has implemented a staggered approach to the mandatory filing<\/p>\n

From CBP – <\/span>CSMS #16-000093<\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n

CBP has implemented a staggered approach to the mandatory filing of electronic entries and corresponding entry summaries in ACE, and the decommissioning of electronic entry\/entry summary filing capabilities in the Automated Commercial System (ACS).<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, CBP offered this from the Updated Ace Transition Timeline:<\/span><\/p>\n

Working in close coordination with the Department of Homeland Security, the Border Interagency Executive Council, and the White House, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has been actively tracking and assessing stakeholder readiness for the mandatory filing of all electronic entries and corresponding entry summaries in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). While significant progress has been made, continued concerns about stakeholder readiness have necessitated an updated timeline for the mandatory transition to ACE for electronic entry and entry summary filing. This updated timeline continues to align with our December 2016 deadline for full implementation of the Single Window via ACE. <\/span><\/p>\n

Taking into consideration the input from our stakeholders, CBP has implemented a staggered approach to the mandatory filing of electronic entries and corresponding entry summaries\u00a0in ACE, and the decommissioning of electronic entry\/entry summary filing capabilities in the Automated Commercial System (ACS).<\/span><\/p>\n
