Due to an error in programming, as of April 12, 2022, ACE inadvertently would not permit the transmittal of the required chapter 99 numbers for China Section 301 duty and/or exclusion for several Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) classifications.
The ACE programming for the HTSUS numbers identified in CSMS message #51675127 issued on April 21, 2022, has been updated effective April 26, 2022, and importers are now able to file entries and PSCs with the appropriate chapter 99 number to either pay the China Section 301 duty or claim the exclusion to obtain refunds of duties paid.
CBP also identified two additional HTSUS where ACE is not allowing t the transmittal of the required chapter 99 numbers for China Section 301 duty and/or exclusion on or after April 12, 2022:
- 8524.11.9000
- 0304.83.5090
For these two additional HTSUS, the functionality for the acceptance of the associated China Section 301 Chapter 99 duty or exclusion number is available in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) effective April 28, 2022.
For more information on the reinstatement of certain Section 301 exclusions, see 87 FR 7380.
Corrective actions to be taken:
Importers who entered goods subject to China Section 301 under the HTSUS listed above on or after April 12, 2022, without the associated Chapter 99 number should file a Post Summary Correction (PSC) on or after the dates listed above correcting the entry summary line(s) by adding the appropriate Chapter 99 number to properly pay Section 301 duties or claim the exclusion to obtain refunds of duties paid.
Reminder: importers, brokers, and/or filers should refer to CSMS 39587858 (Entry Summary Order of Reporting for Multiple HTSUS when 98 or 99 HTSUS are required) for guidance when filing an entry summary in which a heading or subheading in Chapter 99 is claimed on imported merchandise.
Questions from the importing community concerning ACE entry rejections involving product exclusions should be referred to their CBP Client Representative.
