U.S. Customs and Border Protection has updated the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) certification environment (CERT) to enhance duty calculation validation in response to trade requests. When testing in CERT, software vendors will see the following condition codes when an incorrect duty value is provided on entry summary lines that have up to 32 Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes:
- 624 – EST DUTY/CALC’D DUTY MISMATCH - LINE
- 627 – Est Duty/Calc’d Duty Mismatch - Total
This enhancement is expected to be deployed to the ACE Production (PROD) environment on February 17, 2026.
