The Treasury Department published its fall 2022 regulatory agenda for CBP. The only new mention of any regulations is a new long-term action that would amend CBP's regulations "pertaining to prior disclosure and to the procedure for demanding payment of duties, taxes, fees, or revenue" when a penalty claim isn't issued. "Amendments are designed to encourage participation in the prior disclosure program and to enhance the effectiveness of the duty/revenue demand process," the agenda said.
