ALL FILERS ARE REQUESTED TO IMMEDIATLEY STOP USING THE CONFIGURATION
'TRUCK' IN THE SCAC-BILL NUMBER FIELDS OF ALL SUBMISSIONS TO CBP.
TRUC IS NOT AN OPERATIONAL SCAC AND THE REPEATED USE OF THE LETTER 'K'
TO DENOTE THE SERIAL PORTION OF THE BILL NUMBER HAS CAUSED SYSTEMIC
PROBLEMS. YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO USE THE EXTRACT REFERENCE QUERY
TO DETERMINE THE CORRECT SCAC OF THE IMPORTING CARRIER.
YOU SHOULD USE 'TRUCK' ONLY IN LIEU OF THE IMPORTING CONVEYANCE
ACTUAL NAME.
QUESTIONS MAY BE DIRECTED TO YOUR CLIENT REPRESENTATIVE.
