U.S. Customs and Border Protection has posted an overview of the Trade Support Network (TSN) and frequently asked questions on how the TSN provides business input to CBP on modernization issues. TSN committees provide information relating to specific business processes to CBP, including Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) requirement recommendations. These committees are formed and disbanded in parallel with the stages of ACE development. Many of the committees have also formed subcommittees to concentrate expertise in a specific area, such as drawback, bonds, Foreign Trade Zones, etc. (The TSN will be meeting on September 22-23, 2011.)
