CBP and FDA Still Testing PoE Changes Through ACE; Date of Deployment TBD

FDA and CBP are actively testing "various scenarios surrounding processing" Port of Entry changes through the Automated Commercial Environment, and a date for deployment is still to be determined, CBP said in a message July 6. Previously CBP had said the date for deployment would be no sooner than June 17 (see 2305220034). Both the FDA and CBP are encouraging the trade to continue testing in CERT, and the date for implementation is still unknown as testing continues. CBP said it will provide further updates when the planned deployment date is known.
