CBP Administrative Messages, Electronic Bulletin Board Notices, Etc
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) states that until further notice, filers are to use the code "YU" for the country of "Serbia and Montenegro," as ACS cannot yet accept the correct ISO code of "CS" for this country. CBP states that it currently maintains a number of unliquidated import entries from the former Czechoslovakia, that have a then-correct ISO code of "CS".

1. Code for "Serbia and Montenegro" Must Remain "YU" for ACS Purposes
As the ACS country code file does not allow multiple occurrences of the same country code with different start and end dates, CBP states that ACS filers must use code "YU" for the country of Serbia and Montenegro until further notice.
(See ITT's Online Archives or 02/04/04 news, 04020410 for BP summary of State Department notice on this country's name and ISO code change (note that for AES purposes, the new ISO code of "CS" is to be used).(Adm: 04-0170, dated 02/06/04, available by emailing requests to staff@brokerpower.com)
2. Written Testimony of CBP Commissioner Before 9-11 Commission

3. Miscellaneous CBP Messages on AD and CV Duty Actions
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has issued messages on a number of antidumping (AD) and countervailing (CV) duty actions, many of which (marked by an * in the action column) were previously published in the Federal Register by the International Trade Administration (ITA) and summarized in International Trade Today.
(The CBP messages marked with an * cover much of the same information as the ITA notices; however, CBPs' messages often list the 10-character case number specific to each listed company(s). ITA notices only list the 7-character master case number. In addition, sometimes the master case number for CBP purposes (in parentheses, below, where applicable) differs from the ITA master case number.)
