This message is to provide an update to obtaining a standalone Prior Notice Confirmation Number for FDA.

There are currently three ways to obtain a standalone Prior Notice Confirmation Number:

1. FDA's Prior Notice System Interface (PNSI) (http://www.fda.gov/Food/GuidanceRegulation/ImportsExports/Importing/ucm2006836.htm

2. The Automated Commercial System (ACS) – the WP function

3. The Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) – the PE functionally

Filers can continue to transmit in BOTH ACS and ACE until a subsequent CSMS message is issued notifying the trade when ACS (WP) will be turned off. Following that date, ACE and the FDA PNSI will be the only systems available to provide a Prior Notice Confirmation Number.
