Overview of This Information
Collection
Title: Entry/Immediate Delivery
Application and ACE Cargo Release.
OMB Number: 1651–0024.
Form Number: 3461 + 3461 ALT.
Current Actions: Revision.
Type of Review: Revision.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Abstract: All items imported into the
United States are subject to examination
before entering the commerce of the
United States. There are two procedures
available to affect the release of
imported merchandise, including
‘‘entry’’ pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1484, and
‘‘immediate delivery’’ pursuant to 19
U.S.C. 1448(b). Under both procedures,
CBP Forms 3461, Entry/Immediate
Delivery, and 3461 ALT are the source
documents in the packages presented to
Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The information collected on CBP
Forms 3461 and 3461 ALT allow CBP
officers to verify that the information
regarding the consignee and shipment is
correct and that a bond is on file with
CBP. CBP also uses these forms to close
out the manifest and to establish the
obligation to pay estimated duties in the
time period prescribed by law or
PO 00000

regulation. CBP Form 3461 is also a
delivery authorization document and is
given to the importing carrier to
authorize the release of the
merchandise.
CBP Forms 3461 and 3461 ALT are
provided for by 19 CFR 142.3, 142.16,
141.22, and 141.24. The forms and
instructions for Form 3461 are
accessible at: https://www.cbp.gov/
newsroom/publications/forms?
title=3461&=Apply.
Ace Cargo Release (formerly referred
to as ‘‘Simplified Entry’’) is a program
for ACE entry summary filers in which
importers or brokers may file ACE Cargo
Release data in lieu of filing the CBP
Form 3461. This data consists of 12
required elements: importer of record;
buyer name and address; buyer
employer identification number
(consignee number), seller name and
address; manufacturer/supplier name
and address; Harmonized Tariff
Schedule 10-digit number; country of
origin; bill of lading; house air waybill
number; bill of lading issuer code; entry
number; entry type; and estimated
shipment value. There are also four
optional data elements: the container
stuffing location, consolidator name and
address, ship to party name and
address. There are three Global Business
Identifier (GBI) identifiers available to
filers: 20-digit Legal Entity Identifier
(LEI), 9-digit Data Universal Numbering
System (DUNS), and 13-digit Global
Location Number (GLN). The GBI
Identifiers can be inputted for any of the
following parties: manufacturer/
producer, seller shipper, exporter,
distributor or packager. The GBI
identifiers are new optional data
elements that are being collected to
better identify the legal entity that is
interacting with CBP as well as explore
opportunities to enhance supply chain
traceability and visibility in response to
the growing complexity of global trade.
The data collected under the ACE Cargo
Release program is intended to reduce
transaction costs, expedite cargo release,
and enhance cargo security. ACE Cargo
Release filing minimizes the
redundancy of data submitted by the
filer to CBP through receiving carrier
data from the carrier. This design allows
the participants to file earlier in the
transportation flow. Guidance on using
ACE Cargo Release may be found at
http://www.cbp.gov/trade/ace/features.
It should be noted that ACE Cargo
Release was previously called
Simplified Entry.
New Changes:
1. Global Business Identifier (GBI):
Collectively, the updates proposed
below aim to enhance upstream supply
chain traceability and visibility while

khammond on DSK9W7S144PROD with NOTICES
55156
Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 228 / Monday, December 1, 2025 / Notices
addressing the increasing complexity of
global trade supply chains. All
participation and data submitted is
voluntary. Find more details about GBI
in the 1651–0141 GBI information
collection.
■ The GBI Test is expanding the
available supply chain entity party
types from the original six optional
parties (Manufacturer, Shipper, Seller,
Exporter, Distributor, Packager), to
include two new parties:
‘‘Intermediary’’ and ‘‘Source,’’ along
with optional free text fields that will
allow filers to input additional
descriptions and information about the
specific party type. These party types
would be made available in the GBI
Enrollment database as well as the
Automated Commercial Environment
Cargo Release.
■ A modification within the Global
Business Identifiers (GBI) Enrollment
database will allow the trade to submit
one or more of the unique GBI’s (the
Legal Entity Identifier (LEI), Global
Location Number (GLN), and Data
Universal Numbering System (DUNS))
for a supply chain entity, as opposed to
all three as previously approved and
announced. Furthermore, a related
programming update will enable trade
participants the ability to modify or
change a previous enrollment, including
updating or adding additional GBI
numbers.
■ CBP intends to expand the choices
of identifiers available to filers over the
duration of the Test, including those
that at no cost to the government
provide access to the underlying entity
and product specific supply chain data
associated with the identifier. This
would enhance traceability for CBP
which may translate to facilitation
benefits and reduced industry costs.
CBP has initiated programming requests
in ACE to accommodate the intake of
additional GBI identifier qualifiers.
These changes are under development
and there is no defined timeline for
their completion. Specifically, CBP will
begin by adding to the GBI Test the new
Altana ID (ALTA) maintained by Altana
Technologies, USG Inc. (Altana). The
addition of the ALTA identifier
alongside current and future GBI
identifiers will widen participants’
choices and allow CBP to continue to
evaluate the breadth and veracity of
entity and supply chain information
embedded within different types of
identifier solutions already being
leveraged by trade industry traceability
stewards. It will also contribute to CBP’s
ongoing exploration of how traced
supply chain information may be
ingested and operationalized for risk
management and facilitation purposes.

CBP will add any new identifiers into
the collection and submit to OMB for
approval as they are determined through
a change request (Form 83–C).
2. Russian Sanctions Executive Order
14114:
■ New Data Elements are being
added to comply with the Russian
sanctions outlined in Executive Order
14114 published on December 22, 2023.
The data elements and burden are
recorded in the supporting statement of
the 1651–0NEW Russian Sanctions
information collection package.
3. Update to Form 3461/3461ALT
Instructions: The instructions on the
Form 3461/3461 ALT have been
updated to include the new Russian
sanctions data elements and text field
boxes, as well as being updated to
improve user experience and clarity of
the form. Find a copy of the new form,

with this package submission as
supplementary documents.
