UPDATE: CSMS Message # 42095774: Drawback Entries (DX) responses with an Informational message of I285 INVALID BOND STATUS, I286 INVALID BOND DESIGNATION, and I287-BOND INSUFFICIENT in addition to ACE SYSTEM FAILURE

Plain-English explanation

CSMS 42098258 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin (system update), published on March 20, 2020. It carries the official CBP guidance brokers and importers must follow for the topic — "UPDATE: CSMS Message # 42095774: Drawback Entries (DX) responses with an Informational message of I285 INVALID BOND STATUS, I286 INVALID BOND DESIGNATION, and I287-BOND INSUFFICIENT in addition to ACE SYSTEM FAILURE". 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 #42098258 - UPDATE: CSMS Message # 42095774: Drawback Entries (DX) responses with an Informational message of I285 INVALID BOND STATUS, I286 INVALID BOND DESIGNATION, and I287-BOND INSUFFICIENT in addition to ACE SYSTEM FAILURE U.S. Customs and Border Protection sent this bulletin at 03/20/2020 06:07 PM EDT Cargo Systems Messaging Service CSMS #42098258 - UPDATE: CSMS Message # 42095774: Drawback Entries (DX) responses with an Informational message of I285 INVALID BOND STATUS, I286 INVALID BOND DESIGNATION, and I287-BOND INSUFFICIENT in addition to ACE SYSTEM FAILURE CBP has identified a scenario whereby the Trade is submitting a Drawback claim (DE transaction) with AP request and ACE returns an Ace System Failure (ASF). Then, the Trade re-submits the claim, CBP then accepts it, however, returning the informational message of Bond Insufficient, and removing AP from the claim. It returns the insufficient because CBP already decremented the bond while processing the first attempt, therefore, it will not decrement a second time (please ignore the Bond Insufficient message). CBP has numerous claims this week with this scenario, for those in the exact scenario, CBP will update the database directly to add AP, and send/re-send the claims to ACS, which will initiate the payment process. Therefore, please continue to resubmit the drawback claim (DE) if you receive an ASF (wait a few minutes before sending a second transmission), CBP will update the claim with the AP until there is a fix in place. Another CSMS message will be sent when the issue is resolved.

Frequently asked questions

What is CSMS 42098258?

CSMS 42098258 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin titled "UPDATE: CSMS Message # 42095774: Drawback Entries (DX) responses with an Informational message of I285 INVALID BOND STATUS, I286 INVALID BOND DESIGNATION, and I287-BOND INSUFFICIENT in addition to ACE SYSTEM FAILURE". 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 42098258 published?

CBP published CSMS 42098258 on March 20, 2020. The bulletin's instructions are typically operative as of the publication date unless the body specifies a different effective date.

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.
