On August
16, 2017, U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) published a notice in
the Federal Register (82 FR 38923)
announcing plans to make the
Automated Commercial Environment
(ACE) the sole electronic data
interchange (EDI) system authorized by
the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) for processing
electronic Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ)
admission applications, as of September
16, 2017. The document also announced
that, on September 16, 2017, the
Automated Commercial System (ACS)
would no longer be a CBP-authorized
EDI system for purposes of processing
these electronic filings. Further, the
document announced that the test
program would be extended until a
decision is reached to implement the
program on a permanent basis and/or to
conclude the test. Finally, the notice
clarified that the list of data elements
required for the electronic FTZ
admission application must include the
‘‘Zone ID,’’ and reminded test
participants that they must provide the
data elements ‘‘Steel Import License
Number’’ and ‘‘Kimberley Process
Certificate Number’’ to CBP.
CBP has been assessing stakeholder
readiness for the mandatory transition
of electronic FTZ admission
applications from ACS to ACE. CBP has
determined that industry partners need
additional time to prepare for the
transition to electronic capabilities in
ACE.
Accordingly, all the changes
announced in the August 16, 2017
Federal Register notice, including the
transition to ACE as the sole CBPauthorized EDI system for electronic
FTZ admission applications, will not be
operational until December 9, 2017.

Dated: September 11, 2017.
