CBP posts draft ACE error codes for the new mail entry type 13 test
CBP title: Updates to ACE CATAIR Entry Summary Error Dictionary in Support of New Entry Type 13
What did CBP announce?
CBP posted a draft ACE CATAIR Error Dictionary V54 in the Future Capabilities section of CBP.gov. All updates support the new Entry Type 13 test. Nine new errors cover manifest components, the final delivered-to party and address, unknown ZIP codes and the dutiable mail fee. The update renames error B49 to "PSC NOT ALLOWED - CANNOT BE INFORMAL/MAIL" and updates 11 current errors.
What is Allied's position?
These draft errors apply to the entry type 13 mail entries that we file. Under these errors, ACE rejects a type 13 entry that lacks the final delivered-to party, its complete address or a known ZIP code. Mail shippers should send us these data for each shipment. The message does not give a production date for these errors.
General information, not legal advice.
What to do now
- Send us the full name of the final delivered to party for each mail shipment.
- Check that each delivery address is complete and uses a valid ZIP code.
- Ask us to review your mail shipment data before entry type 13 filings.
