The Importer Type is a conditional element in the TI application for Importer/Consignee Create/Update. It is required when the transmission includes a U.S. address. CBP is aware that ACE is currently accepting 5106 data submitted via the TI application for U.S. addressed entities without the Importer Type. Although the TI transmission is accepted, the data is not complete and this is causing downstream issues when the trade cannot use the IR (Importer of Record) number for entry or ISF (Importer Security Filing) processing. One error caused by this issue is an ACE Cargo Release (SE) rejection error "014 – Importer of Record Not on File”.
CBP has initiated a request to have the validation returned, but in the meantime filers and vendors should take extra caution to ensure they are correctly providing one of the four accepted Importer Types: "C" (CORPORATION), "P" (PARTNERSHIP), "I" (INDIVIDUAL), OR "S" (SOLE PROPRIETOR) when transmitting a TI with a U.S. address.
