Tips on How to Resolve AES Fatal Errors
When a shipment is filed to the AES, a system response message is generated and indicates whether the shipment has been accepted or rejected. If the shipment is accepted, the AES filer receives an Internal Transaction Number (ITN) as confirmation. However, if the shipment is rejected, a Fatal Error notification is received.
To help you resolve AES Fatal Errors, here are some tips on how to correct the most frequent errors that were generated in AES for this month.
Fatal Error Response Code: 132
Narrative: Port of Export Must Be A Road Port
Reason: The Port of Export Code reported is not allowed for road shipments.
Resolution: The Port of Export Code reported must accommodate the Mode of Transportation indicated in your shipment.
See Appendix D - Export Port Codes for a list of acceptable Port of Exportation Codes and their corresponding Modes of Transportation.
Verify the Port of Export Code and Mode of Transportation Code combination, correct the shipment and resubmit.
Fatal Error Response Code: 336
Narrative: Ultimate Consignee State Cannot be Reported
Reason: The Country of Destination reported does not allow a State Code.
Resolution: Report a State Code only if the Country of Destination is the United States or Mexico.
Verify the Ultimate Consignee Country Code and State Code, correct the shipment and resubmit.
For a complete list of Fatal Error Response Codes, their reasons, and resolutions, see Appendix A – Commodity Filing Response Messages.
It is important that AES filers correct Fatal Errors as soon as they are received in order to comply with the Foreign Trade Regulations. These errors must be corrected prior to export for shipments filed predeparture and as soon as possible for shipments filed postdeparture but not later than five calendar days after departure.
