Plain-English explanation

CSMS 46031819 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin (operational), published on February 2, 2021. It carries the official CBP guidance brokers and importers must follow for the topic — "Entries Subject to AD/CVD Third Country Cases". 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.

For over one year, from October 5, 2019, through October 28, 2020, due to technical problems, ACE did not allow importers to file AD/CVD entries with any of the AD/CVD third country case numbers listed in the attachment, and entries may have been filed without the required AD/CVD third country case numbers. Importers should review their entries during this period and determine if any of the entries should have been filed with the AD/CVD case numbers listed in the attachment. Within sixty days of this notice, importers should submit post summary corrections with the required AD/CVD cash deposits for entries identified as missing the applicable third country cases. For entries that have liquidated, importers may file voluntary tenders per 19 CFR 141.105. Failure to take action within the sixty-day period may result in further actions by CBP.

CSMS 46031819 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin titled "Entries Subject to AD/CVD Third Country Cases". 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.

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.
