Information on Entry Type 86 Filing-related Delays and May 8 Support Call

Plain-English explanation

CSMS 42629672 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin (operational), published on May 7, 2020. It carries the official CBP guidance brokers and importers must follow for the topic — "Information on Entry Type 86 Filing-related Delays and May 8 Support Call". 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 #42629672 - Information on Entry Type 86 Filing-related Delays and May 8 Support Call U.S. Customs and Border Protection sent this bulletin at 05/07/2020 05:20 PM EDT   Cargo Systems Messaging Service CSMS #42629672 - Information on Entry Type 86 Filing-related Delays and May 8 Support Call Due to the rapid increase in the volume of Entry Type 86 filings, CBP’s Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) is experiencing up to 1-2 hour delays in processing times. While CBP continues to enhance ACE capabilities to handle the increased volume, CBP recommends the following guidelines until further system enhancements are implemented: Recommendations for Ocean Carriers and NVOCCs: Limit master bills to a maximum of 10,000 related house (NVOCC) bills. File all master and house bills before any entry filings. Recommendations for Truck Carriers: Single Truck trips should contain no more than 100,000 shipments, but the carrier can file multiple truck trips for a single crossing. Recommendations for Entry Type 86 Filers:  Do not file Type 86 entries until all of the related bills are filed in the manifest system. Limit OCEAN Type 86 entry (ACE Cargo Release SE transactions) filings to 20,000 – 30,000 entries per hour. Limit AIR type 86 entry filings to 20,000 – 30,000 entries per hour. Send SE Update transactions only for the specific entries that require a correction. Do not send NO CHANGE SE Update transactions. Hold ACE Cargo Manifest queries until the entry processing is completed. ACE Cargo Manifest queries (CQ) will not return responses while the entries are still being processed. When querying a large master bill of lading with more than 10,000 house bills, processing time and response output size can be reduced by requesting a specific house bill or a specific master bill, without the related house bills. Please reference the guidance issued in CSMS #42072893 – CQ Cargo Manifest Query. Additional Cargo Release Information for ABI filers If filers notice a delay in receiving ACE Cargo Release Status Notification (SO transaction), do not transmit an ACE Cargo Release Replace or ACE Cargo Release Update (SE transaction) or an ACE Entry Summary transaction that includes ACE Cargo Release (AE transaction with SE data) until the SO transactions are received. In some cases, the additional cargo release transactions may increase the delays in posting to the manifest. Do not submit a PGA Correction transaction (CA) until the SO transaction is received. The CA transaction is tied to the completion of the cargo release processing and the data sent to the PGAs may fall out of sync with ACE Cargo Release processing. Trade Support Call: Entry Type 86 In addition, CBP will be hosting a support call tomorrow, Friday, May 8, 2020 at 3:30PM ET to discuss the current status of Section 321: Entry Type 86 filing. CBP business leads will be available to answer questions from the trade community regarding the current issues related to Entry Type 86 filings.

Frequently asked questions

What is CSMS 42629672?

CSMS 42629672 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin titled "Information on Entry Type 86 Filing-related Delays and May 8 Support Call". 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 42629672 published?

CBP published CSMS 42629672 on May 7, 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.
