Plain-English explanation

CSMS 52132388 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin (operational), published on June 10, 2022. It carries the official CBP guidance brokers and importers must follow for the topic — "Conclusion of FDA™s 24/7 Drug Entry Review Pilot".

CSMS #52132388 - Conclusion of FDA’s 24/7 Drug Entry Review Pilot U.S. Customs and Border Protection sent this bulletin at 06/10/2022 09:00 AM EDT Cargo Systems Messaging Service CSMS #52132388 - Conclusion of FDA’s 24/7 Drug Entry Review Pilot The Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA’s) Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA), Office of Enforcement and Import Operations (OEIO) 90-day pilot project to conduct drug entry admissibility reviews on a national basis and expanded staffing to 24/7shift coverage will conclude on June 11, 2022. The Nationalized Drug Entry Review Pilot has been running since March 13, 2022, during which time we conducted entry admissibility reviews on a national basis versus the current port-by-port entry review approach. We also utilized entry review staff over multiple time zones allowing us to expand our drug entry review coverage times. FDA will be assessing data from the pilot to determine any benefits gained from a national drug entry review approach; the potential to automate portions of the entry review process; allowing entry reviewers more time to focus on potentially higher violation products; and efficiencies gained from timely receipt of associated documentation. The contact information established for this pilot will be shut down, including the ERPilot@fda.hhs.gov email, and phone numbers 833-312-3237 and 301-796-2249. For drug import questions, please contact the OEIO divisions (see Import Offices and Ports of Entry | FDA ). Data, information, and lessons learned from the pilot will be reviewed and analyzed to determine improvements in the entry review program.

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.
