CBP issued the following releases on commercial trade and related matters:
CBP has released its April 30 Customs Bulletin (Vol. 59, No. 18). While it contains no ruling notices, it does include four Court of International Trade slip opinions.
CBP has amended import regulations to reflect changes in import restrictions on certain archaeological and ethnological materials from Uzbekistan, according to a notice. The changes, effective May 5, come as Uzbekistan has been added to the list of countries with bilateral agreements with the U.S. imposing cultural property import restrictions. The restrictions fall under the authority of the Convention on Cultural Property Implementation Act.
As CBP has made it clear that it will ramp up efforts to ensure companies and importers are complying with import regulations and all the assorted tariff modifications, the roles of customs brokers and import compliance experts have been elevated within company structures, several trade experts said this week in webinars.

CBP said it plans to publish by May 16 refund procedures "and any necessary updates" for imported goods that are no longer subject to tariff stacking, according to a May 1 cargo systems message.
