CBP Updates CATAIR for RLF 03 Entries

October 19, 2012 by Tim Warren|Customs

CBP posted documents on changes to the Customs and Trade Interface Requirements (CATAIR). The updates will change usage notes text to allow for entry type 03 to be filed via remote location filing (RLF) and remove “First Sale” filing requirements, said CBP. CBP previously said it was targeting mid-October for RLF 03 entries and would look to expand the RLF program rather than overhauling customs broker permitting requirements.

The ACE ABI CATAIR Error Dictionary was also revised and is available (here).
