Background

A new CATAIR Chapter allowing ABI filers to submit/modify In-Bond movements for Air AMS is scheduled to be implemented on November 22, 2008. The new CATAIR chapter has been posted on the CBP website at:

http://www.cbp.gov/linkhandler/cgov/trade/automated/automated_systems/abi/catair/chapters/air_inbond.ctt/air_inbond.doc

The new ABI Application Identifiers are QX and WX. This CATAIR Chapter is a modification to the current QP and WP CATAIR messages. The QX and WX will be in use until ACE M2.1 (MMM-AIR)is deployed (no sooner than Spring 2009). At that time all ABI in-bond functionality will be included in the QP and WP messages and the QX and WX messages will become obsolete.
