It links to 1 AD/CVD case in Tandom's catalog.

Frequently asked questions

What is CSMS 9274307?

CSMS 9274307 is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Cargo Systems Messaging Service bulletin titled "Amended cash deposit instructions for certain crystalline silicon photovoltaic products from the People s Republic of China (A-570-010)". 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 9274307 published?

CBP published CSMS 9274307 on October 1, 2019. The bulletin's instructions are typically operative as of the publication date unless the body specifies a different effective date.

Which AD/CVD cases does CSMS 9274307 affect?

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.
