The government is considering how quickly it can get through a legislative fix to U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement implementation provisions that allow for duty refunds on post-importation preference claims, but not a refund of merchandise processing fees, said Maya Kumar, director of textiles and trade agreements at CBP. She said on May 22 that CBP officials “do not think that was the intent of the law.” Kumar, who was speaking at the National Association of Foreign-Trade Zones virtual conference, said that if it's at all possible, CBP would like to see that fixed by Congress before USMCA's entry into force July 1. “We’re trying to work with [the office of the U.S. Trade Representative] as well as Congress and see how quickly they can do that,” she said.

CBP will be “implementing new requirements in ACE for processing entries subject to the new U.S.-Mexico-Canada trilateral trade agreement (USMCA)” on July 1, the agency said in an updated ACE deployment schedule. That's the same day the USMCA takes effect. CBP also has determined it will deploy Electronic Vessel Manifest Confidentiality in ACE on May 22, and it removed “Analytical Formula for Continuous Bond Sufficiency due to change in project scope,” according to the change log.
The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service extended until July 18 its temporary policy allowing electronic submission of nearly all import documents, including veterinary certificates, phytosanitary certificates and PPQ 203 forms, in the ACE Document Image System (DIS), CBP said in a May 15 CSMS message. The policy, in place since April 8 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, had been set to expire May 16.
