Attn: Ocean Manifest Users (MVOCCs, NVOCCs, terminal operators, port authorities, software developers, and other entities who receive notifications).
Take Action Now and Be Prepared!!!
PLEASE READ THIS MESSAGE IN ITS' ENTIRETY.
If you are not yet filing your ocean manifest data via ACE e-Manifest: Rail and Sea, nor testing to become certified, the time to take action is NOW!
On September 29, 2012, ACS/AMS EDI Ocean Manifest functionality will be transitioned to ACE as part of the ACE eManifest: Rail and Sea Deployment. When this transition takes place, you will no longer be able transmit or receive data via ACS/AMS. Programming changes to comply with the modified record formats must be made in order to continue filing manifests electronically pursuant to the Trade Act of 2002.
The ACE Ocean Manifest Implementation Guidelines for CAMIR and X12 can be found at
http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/trade/automated/modernization/ace_edi_messages/ Please review these guidelines and program accordingly.
Additional information on the ACE e-Manifest: Rail and Sea deployment including specific record changes can be found at:

NOTE: This deployment impacts not only MVOCCs but also NVOCCs, terminal operators, port authorities and other entities who receive secondary party notifications. If your company is doing business with others who may be impacted by these changes, please direct them to this message.
The ACE certification testing environment is now available for trade software testing.
In an effort to insure that CBP can plan for the resources necessary to test each of you, we need these projected timeframes. We urge you to complete your testing and migrate to the ACE Production environment as soon as possible. If a large number of ABI Software Developers wait until the last two months, CBP may not have the Client Representative resources to give you the time and attention you may need.
If you have not already done so, please contact your Client Representative to provide them with the following information on your migration plan:
1. Projected Testing Start Date
2. Projected Testing Complete Date
3. Projected Date to Move to ACE Production
