CBP ISSUES INTERIM FINAL RULE ON ACS REPLACEMENT

November 16, 2015

On November 1, 2015, the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) will be a CBP-authorized Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) System.  CBP’s Automated Commercial System (ACS) is being phased out as an authorized EDI System for the processing of electronic entry and entry summary filings.  ACE will replace the ACS as the authorized EDI system for processing commercial trade data. 

The ACS is currently used by CBP to track, control, and process all goods imported into the United States.  By the end of 2016, ACE will become the primary system through which the trade community will report imports and exports and the government will determine admissibility.
