CBP Issues Harmonized System Update with Lacey Act Changes

CBP created Harmonized System Update (HSU) 2111 on Nov. 9, containing 40 Automated Broker Interface records and 8 Harmonized Tariff Schedule records, it said in a CSMS message. The update includes changes to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Lacey Act code flags, it said. "This modification will allow trade to use the Lacey Act disclaimer codes 'A' and 'B' for HTS code 4415 entries on not new wood without modifying import software or practices," CBP said.
