On August 30, 2016, U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") published a notice in the Federal Register announcing plans to make the Automated Commercial Environment ("ACE") the sole electronic data interchange ("EDI") system authorized for processing electronic drawback and duty deferral entry and entry summary filings. The changes announced in that notice were to have been effective on October 1, 2016. On October 3, 2016, CBP published a notice in the Federal Register announcing that the effective date for the transition to ACE as the sole CBP-authorized EDI system for electronic drawback and duty deferral entry and entry summary filings would be delayed until further notice.
