SCOPE RULING ON ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER ON HAND TRUCKS AND CERTAIN PARTS THEREOF FROM THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA (A-570-891), MCK MAGNA CART

Plain-English explanation

CSMS 1259306 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin (trade policy), published on September 16, 2011. It carries the official CBP guidance brokers and importers must follow for the topic — "SCOPE RULING ON ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER ON HAND TRUCKS AND CERTAIN PARTS THEREOF FROM THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA (A-570-891), MCK MAGNA CART". It links to 1 AD/CVD case in Tandom's catalog. CSMS messages are the operational layer between Commerce determinations and at-the-border collections: when Commerce publishes a new rate, scope ruling, or instruction, CBP turns it into a CSMS that ACE/ACS systems and brokers act on.

CSMS 1259306 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin titled "SCOPE RULING ON ANTIDUMPING DUTY ORDER ON HAND TRUCKS AND CERTAIN PARTS THEREOF FROM THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA (A-570-891), MCK MAGNA CART". CSMS bulletins are the operational instructions CBP issues to brokers, importers, and ACE filers covering rate changes, system updates, scope guidance, and other day-to-day customs-operations changes.

When was CSMS 1259306 published?

CBP published CSMS 1259306 on September 16, 2011. The bulletin's instructions are typically operative as of the publication date unless the body specifies a different effective date.

Which AD/CVD cases does CSMS 1259306 affect?

Is the CBP CSMS the legally binding instruction?

Yes — for at-the-border filing and entry collection. CSMS messages translate Commerce's Federal Register determinations into operational CBP instructions that ACE/ACS systems and brokers execute. The Federal Register notice is the underlying legal authority; the CSMS is the operational implementation. Both should be read together when reconciling a rate or scope change.
