Automated Manifest System (AMS) Due to strict security measures, the Automated Manifest System (AMS) determines that American customs have to be notified 24 hours in advance of shipments to as well as from the United States. Import Security Filing (ISF) The Import Security Filing (ISF) dictates that cargo must be reported to US customs 24 hours prior to being loaded into a container or ship. Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) The Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) is U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s electronic manifest program, which was launched in 2007 and requires carriers to file an ACE Manifest at least one hour prior to arrival at the border. Air Cargo Advance Screening (ACAS) Similarly to ACE, the Air Cargo Advance Screening (ACAS) Program, which went into effect on June 12, 2018, requires the submission of advanced air cargo information on shipments arriving in the United States from a foreign location. Since 2004, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) requires that Canadian customs have to be notified 24 hours ahead of shipments to as well as from Canada. This filing is called Advance Commercial Information (ACI). Additionally, the so-called Electronic Manifest or eManifest has to be submitted to the CBSA before arrival of the shipment. In Japan, Advance Cargo Information (ACI) must be submitted for all air cargo, crew and passenger information for all vessels and aircraft entering the country. The filing system is managed by the Nippon Automated Cargo and Port Consolidation System (NACCS) and went live in March 2019. The Ocean Advance Filing Requirement (AFR), ACI’s counterpart regarding inbound ocean shipment, has been mandatory since 2014. As far as South Africa is concerned, the South African Revenue Service (SARS) aims to collect all revenues due and ensure optimal compliance with tax and customs legislation through its mandatory eFiling. This also provides a customs and excise service that will facilitate legitimate trade as well as protect the economy and society. Just like in the United States, the Automated Manifest System (AMS) requires that Mexican customs be notified 24 hours in advance of shipments to as well as from the country.

>>>INDUSTRY NEWS<<< The Government of Pakistan will allow entry of Azerbaijan’s registered vehicles transporting transit and bilateral trade cargo into Pakistan. The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has issued an SRO.2016(I)/2024 to notify draft Azerbaijan-Pakistan Transit Trade Rules 2024 under the Azerbaijan-Pakistan Transit Trade Agreement, 2024 for processing of transit trade cargo through the specified ports under the Customs Computerized System, to and from Azerbaijan. It will cover Azerbaijan’s cargo imported through Karachi Port, Port Muhammad Bin Qasim, and Gwadar Port and Azerbaijan’s cargo to other countries through Karachi Port, Port Muhammad Bin Qasim, and Gwadar Port. The rules stated that Azerbaijan’s registered vehicles holding valid permits and being utilized for the transport of transit and bilateral trade cargo shall enter Pakistan without the requirement of submission of any financial security for the duty and taxes leviable on the vehicle on the basis of reciprocity, as agreed by the two Contracting Parties. The rules said that all transport operators and Customs clearing agents handling transit goods shall be required to open and maintain a “Revolving Insurance Guarantee PD Account” with Customs. The Directorate of Transit Trade, Peshawar, Quetta, and Gwadar shall be authorized to issue and regulate permits at their respective land border customs stations. In case, the transit goods are transported by foreign registered vehicles, wherein there is no tracker in the prime-mover that can be synced with the tracking device being installed on containers, a GPS tracking device shall be installed by the companies approved by FBR on the door or front cabin of the vehicle for tracking purposes, the new rules added. #Pakistanintermodal #LatestNews #logistics #logisticssolutions #supplychain

Compliance in international and domestic trade is crucial. The Type 86 Pilot Program brought many freight forwarders success in the 321 import de minimis arena, but CBP is now tightening regulations. Recent changes under the program effective February 15, 2024, are particularly noteworthy amidst the surge of cross-border and air cargo e-commerce. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) outlined these changes in a Federal Register Notice from January 16, 2024 (89 FR 2630). Stay informed about the impact of these adjustments: [Link to the Federal Register Notice] #TradeCompliance #CBP #FreightForwarders #DeMinimis #CustomsRegulations #e-commerce #aircargo

CBP Suspends Low-Value Shipment Access for Several Customs Brokers The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has suspended access for several customs brokers to the Type 86 program, which facilitates low-value import shipments. This voluntary initiative allows consignees to have their customs brokers provide CBP with data filed through the agency’s automated broker interface (ABI) under the de minimis rule. The de minimis rule permits the import of one package per day worth $800 or less without filing a formal customs entry with CBP and, importantly, without paying duties or tariffs.

Defra digital services - update Some of Defra digital services have experienced technical issues over the last few days. The power outage has now been fully resolved and Defra digital services are once again fully operational. This includes the Automatic Licence Verification System (ALVS). All Imports that arrived after 21:00 14 May 2024 will now clear as normal. Exceptionally, SPS cleared goods affected by the outage which started from 07:45 11/05/24, have been instructed to move away from the border location under customs control. This is a temporary contingency measure. If any goods affected by the outage remain at a border location (eg. uncollected containerised loads) you should immediately contact the port and arrange for collection of those consignments. Goods moved away from the border location under customs control will still show as held on the Customs Declaration System (CDS). At this time, please do not contact the National Clearance Hub to request for your goods to be released. Declarations will be updated as soon as possible but this does not affect the ability for goods to be directed away from the border. If you use an agent, please stay in contact with them for further updates. There are no restrictions on the use or processing of the goods directed away from the border under customs control as part of the outage of Defra systems. Businesses are reminded that they have a legal responsibility to pay any outstanding duties for these imports once the declaration is finalised.

Summary of international logistics, China-EU trains, and international business information(8/31-9/6) 01 Port information ● The “Highway port + territorial direct access” mode of Durata Port is officially operational On the morning of September 2nd, dozens of cargo vehicles loaded with goods from Kazakhstan were automatically identified at the centralized inspection site of Durata Port, and the arrival information was automatically verified through the exit smart card deduction, and they were quickly and orderly bound for Kazakhstan.It marks the official operation of the “highway port + territorial direct access” mode of Durata Port. The ”Highway port + territorial direct access" model supports the declaration of goods to the customs during transportation, and the pre-processing of customs documents, risk analysis and other operations, so that the vehicle can obtain cargo inspection or release information when it arrives at the centralized inspection site, reducing the storage and waiting links of goods in the port supervision site, and effectively compressing the customs clearance time at the port.This model realizes centralized inspection of places and automatic verification of vehicle release information at national gate bayonets, and reduces manual operations such as declaration and transmission of information by port warehousing enterprises.(China News Network) ● In the first eight months of the Erlian Port, the number of vehicles entering and leaving the country exceeded 430,000 (listed) times. The reporter learned from the Erlian entry-exit border checkpoint that in the first eight months of this year, there were 433,000 vehicles (columns) of entry-exit transportation vehicles at the Erlian port, an increase of 1.94 times year-on-year.(Vitality Erlian)
