Since the M1 drop an e214 filer cannot arrive an in-bond associated with an air waybill using the FZ application. CBP/OIT programmers are aware of the issue, have identified the problem and are in the process of delivering the fixes to the production environment. However, it is the responsibility of the bonded carrier to ensure the arrival of the in-bond and not the FTZ operator/e214 filer unless their bond has been obligated as the bonded carrier.

The in-bond can be arrived by submitting the in-bond documentation to the local CBP office. This is a CBP issue and the local ports should continue to arrive the in-bonds until CBP/OIT delivers the programming to production.

Also, with the M1 drop when an admission is being ‘Replaced’ (FT process) the FTZ online system is suppressing the delete notification but an M1 notification program is sending out the notification in an untimely manner because the program runs periodically and does not realize that these event notifications should not be sent in this particular process. CBP/OIT is aware of the issue as well and is in the process of delivering the fixes to the production environment.

CBP/OIT intends to have the fixes delivered to the production environment by the end of the month.
