CSMS #52344962 - AMS HTS Filings of Potatoes, for Marketing Order (MO) Message Sets U.S. Customs and Border Protection sent this bulletin at 07/01/2022 04:58 PM EDT Cargo Systems Messaging Service CSMS #52344962 - AMS HTS Filings of Potatoes, for Marketing Order (MO) Message Sets Currently AMS and CBP are working to fix an issue in the AMS logic in ACE, which affects the filing of Potatoes under the various Marketing Order (MO) message sets. This is due to a breakout of potato codes authorized by the 484(f) committee and instituted today. As a temporary fix, the severity for HTS Codes 0701.90.5005, 0701.90.5017, 0701.90.5021, and 0701.90.5040 will be temporarily changed from a rejection to a warning. During this time please do not submit any AMS data for these HTS Codes and these HTS Codes only. The system will generate a warning if this AMS data is not provided but the entry will be accepted. During this time, it will be incumbent upon importers to ensure compliance with potato Section 8e import inspection requirements. See link to the regulations here: eCFR :: 7 CFR 980.1 -- Import regulations; Irish potatoes . All other HTS Codes subject to AMS Marketing Order filing requirements will still need the AMS data submitted. AMS will send out another CSMS message once this issue has been corrected.
