CBP Extends Deadline for Brokers to Create ACE Entry Banks for Rail Line Release, Notes Problem
U.S. Customs and Border Protection has issued CSMS #11-000222 to extend to October 14, 2011 (from Sept 23) the deadline for brokers to enter ACE Entry Banks for Rail Line Release. In addition, CBP is experiencing a problem in the ACE Portal that prevents users from viewing and creating ACE Entry Banks for Rail Line Release. If a broker has already created the ACE Entry Banks and cannot view them, do not attempt to enter this data again. CBP will send out a notice when this problem has been resolved.
