CBP aims to start development of “ACE 2.0” in 2025, building off the work going into CBP’s 21st Century Customs Framework (21CCF) and the legislative framework that emerges from that effort, said Gail Kan, CBP acting executive director for trade policy and programs, during a meeting of the Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee March 31.

RANCHO MIRAGE, California -- CBP has faced some delays with beginning the next term of the Commercial Customs Operations Advisory Committee, but it is very close to holding its first meeting, said AnnMarie Highsmith, CBP’s executive assistant commissioner in the Office of Trade. Highsmith also said the agency is on track to revamp its system for collecting customs duties, taxes and fees by 2024, and said its Section 321 data pilot has been a “big success.”
CBP's legislative proposal related to the 21st Century Customs framework may leave out discussion of possible alternative funding sources, said Garrett Wright, who leads the 21CCF effort as director of trade modernization at CBP's Office of Trade. "We are considering decoupling insufficient funding from the rest of this 21CCF package and focusing our efforts on what would be authorizing language," he said. Once "any one of those statutes gets passed, then we can have a conversation with the Hill about how to best fund."
