CSMS # 56597286 - Update to Port of Entry Changes via Cargo Release Update Transaction
The below provides further guidance to CSMS # 56354893 for port of entry updates via Cargo Release.
Filers must ensure that proper steps are followed when changing a Port of Entry after ACE data is transmitted. To ensure a port code is correctly updated on Cargo Release and Entry Summary, use the steps provided below. It is important that each step of the process is completed before initiating the next step. Failure to transmit the data in order may result in a Port of Entry mismatch between the Cargo Release and Entry Summary data.
Steps to change Port Code without canceling entry:
- Transmit the Entry Summary (AE) application data with “D” (Delete) action if summary is on file. Summary must be in Trade Control.
- After Entry Summary (AE) delete is accepted,
-
Prior to arrival – submit either a Cargo Release (SE) transaction with the “U” (Update) or “R” (Replace) action to request a Port of Entry change.
-
After arrival and release - submit a Cargo Release (SE) transaction with the “U” (Update) action to request a Port of Entry change.
- After Cargo Release (SE) is accepted, retransmit the Entry Summary (AE) application with correct port code without certifying for ACE Cargo Release.
Note: The Cargo Release (SE) “U” Update is allowed for up to 15 calendar days from the later of the estimated date of arrival, actual arrival, or date of cargo release. The use of Cargo Release (SE) “R” Replace is a full replacement of the cargo release data, including PGA data, and generally requires manual review/approval and more intensive workflow processing within CBP. Therefore, when allowed, the use of a "U' transaction is recommended when only the Port of Entry is being changed.
