Trade Policy Updates

This message is to notify CBP and the trade community that implementation of the updated In-Bond regulations (https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/09/28/2017-20495/changes-to-the-in-bond-process) will occur on November 27, 2017. While the trade community should continue to make every effort to ensure that all in-bonds are submitted electronically from that date, CBP ports will not begin enforcement of those regulations on that date. CBP is working on an enforcement strategy to address identified issues. CBP field offices and the trade community will receive additional information when final decisions are made.
