CSMS # 62666174 - Updates to ACE AESTIR Documentation for New DDTC Response Message 5C2

The following code has been added to the AESTIR Appendix A - Commodity Filing Response Messages:

Response Code: 5C2

Narrative Text: CAT XXI DETERMINATION NBR UNKNOWN

Severity: INFORMATIONAL Proprietary Record ID/Data Elements: Input ODT Record/DDTC Commodity Jurisdiction (CJ) Number

X.12 Segment ID/Data Elements: X117

Reason: The License Code/USML Category XXI Code declared is one that requires a DDTC Category XXI determination number on the ODT record either reported empty, unknown or the Date of Export is greater than the superseded date in AES.

Resolution: The DDTC Category XXI determination number reported on the ODT record must be a known value in AES. Verify, correct, and retransmit. If DDTC has advised your commodity export is classified in Category XXI, but you do not have a unique case number, you may contact the DDTC Response Team for assistance at ddtccustomerservice@state.gov or (202) 663-1282.

Updates have also been added to CBP Proprietary Commodity Format and ANSI X-12: 601 Export Shipment Information under the AESTIR Commodity Formats section. These documents can be located at the link: https://www.cbp.gov/trade/aes/aestir/commodity-and-transportation-formats-1.

Exporters and Software Developers that submit Electronic Export Information (EEI) via the Electronic Data Interface (EDI) will need to program and test their software, so their clients receive the new DDTC Responses.

AESDirect filers will receive notification via email, similar to the current process.

Please be advised that Response Code 5C2 is now available in CERT and set to FATAL. Notification of when Response Code 5C2 is set to FATAL in Production will be provided in approximately 30 DAYS.

Please reach out to your Client Representative if you have any technical related questions.

For questions regarding regulations, please reach out The Department of State/Directorate of Defense Trade Controls/Licensing Division at (202)663-2700 or ddtccustomerservice@state.gov.
