New ACE Functionality for FTZ Entries, Expedited Release Shipments

U.S. Customs and Border Protection reports that as of July 16 the following functionality was to have been deployed to production in the Automated Commercial Environment.

- foreign-trade zone entries (type 06) that include antidumping/countervailing duties may be filed in ACE (this fix properly writes the AD/CV data to the Automated Commercial System for payment and AD/CV processing)

- entry summaries filed for expedited release shipments (which are identified by the expedited release indicator) will begin enforcing the requirement to submit Food and Drug Administration and/or National Highway Traffic Safety Administration data on the entry summary (entry summaries not properly supplying this data will now reject)
