CONTENTS
LATEST NEWS Updated Timeline for the Mandatory Transition to ACE for Electronic Entry and Entry Summary Filing Working in close coordination with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Border Interagency Executive Council (BIEC), and the White House, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has been actively tracking and assessing stakeholder readiness for the mandatory filing of all electronic entry and entry summaries in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). While significant capabilities have been deployed to date, concerns about stakeholder readiness have necessitated a reassessment of the current timelines. CBP appreciates the input from the trade community and has adjusted the mandatory transition to ACE for electronic entry and entry summary filing as follows: Nov 1, 2015 - Beginning of a transition period for electronic entry and entry summary filings in ACE to allow industry and
Partner Government Agencies (PGAs) more time to test and provide feedback as they fully transition into the new system. Use of ACE is allowed and encouraged for electronic entry and corresponding entry summary filings for Consumption, Antidumping/Countervailing (AD/CVD), Informal, Defense Control Administration Service Region (DCASR) and Government Agency entry/entry summary types (entry types 01, 03, 11, 51, and 52) with or without PGA data.
Feb 28, 2016 - At this time, filers will only be permitted to file in ACE, and no longer permitted to file in the Automated
Commercial System (ACS), all electronic entries and entry summaries. In addition, electronic data for the following agencies must be filed in ACE and ACS will no longer be available for this data: Food and Drug Administration (FDA), National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Lacey data.
July 2016: Upon publication of the Final Rule, ACE must be used for filing data for Agricultural Marketing Services (AMS),
APHIS Core, Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Bureau (ATF), Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Defense Contracts Management Agency (DCMA), Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Enforcement & Compliance (E&C), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Food Safety Inspection Services (FSIS), Fish and Wildlife Services (FWS), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB). Hybrid submissions will no longer be allowed.
CBP would like to reiterate that the transition period initiated on November 1, 2015 does not impact our December 2016 deadline for full implementation of the Single Window via ACE. CBP appreciates all efforts from the trade community to prepare for this transition and encourages all ACE Stakeholders to continue working toward the full transition to ACE.

On August 19, 2015, CBP initiated the first phase (I) of the ACE PGA Pilots at 12 ports of entry. CBP is working with the PGAs to test their transaction processing capabilities for electronic PGA data transmitted by the trade community, at time of entry and entry summary filing, using ACE’s PGA Message Set. FDA, NHTSA and EPA were three of the fourteen agencies that par-ticipated in the initial phase 1 testing with CBP and the Trade community. Twenty PGA Message Set transactions were suc-cessfully transmitted, accepted and processed during Phase (I) of the pilot. CBP will be expanding the PGA Pilots using the following schedule: Phase 2 - September 2, 2015, to 75 additional ports Phase 3 - September 16, 2015, to 120 additional ports with cross agency pilots Phase 4 - September 23, 2015, to all ports ready for filings Phase 5 - October 1, 2015, for all PGA programs For more information on the PGA Pilots, please review the ACE/ITDS PGA Pilot Rollout Plan and Schedule posted to the “PGA Integration” tab on the “ACE Features” page of CBP.gov/ACE.
