Trade Policy Updates

This message is a reminder to the trade community that, in accordance with 19 CFR 24.5(e) (https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/CFR-2012-title19-vol1/pdf/CFR-2012-title19-vol1-sec24-5.pdf), CBP will void any Importer of Record number in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) that is deemed to be inactive. A system update will occur to void these inactive records.



Should you have questions, please email the Office of Trade (OT)/Commercial Operations, Revenue and Entry (CORE) Division at 5106@cbp.dhs.gov. Additional information about the CBP Form 5106 is also available on cbp.gov (https://www.cbp.gov/trade/programs-administration/entry-summary/cbp-form-5106).



Due to the high volume of IOR reactivation requests, CBP’s Office of Finance will need additional time to un-void IORs. For additional questions about the un-voiding process, please refer to the Voided Importer of Record FAQs site page on cbp.gov (https://edit.cbp.gov/trade/trade-community/outreach-programs/bonds/bond-centralization-program/voided-importer-faq).
