THE FOLLOWING ADMIN MESSAGE IS FOR FILERS PARTICIPATING IN THE
ELECTRONIC INVOICE PROGRAM (EIP).

WHEN CUSTOMS REJECTS ELECTRONIC INVOICE ENTRY SUMMARIES THAT HAVE BEEN
ACCEPTED INTO CUSTOMS STATUS, IMPORT AND ENTRY SPECIALISTS USE THE
ELECTRONIC SUMMARY INBOX TO EFFECT THE REJECTS. ABI FILERS RECEIVE
ABI MESSAGES FROM CUSTOMS ADVISING FILERS OF THE CORRECTIONS THAT ARE
TO BE MADE TO THE REJECTED SUMMARIES. ABI FILERS SHOULD MAKE
CORRECTIONS AND RETRANSMIT THE ENTRY SUMMARIES WITHOUT THE PAPERLESS
CERTIFICATION CODE.

ELECTRONIC INVOICE SUMMARIES THAT HAVE BEEN REJECTED BY CUSTOMS MUST
BE REFILED AS PAPER SUMMARIES. WHEN CREATING THE PAPER PACKAGE,
FILERS WILL ATTACH A PRINTED VERSION OF THE REJECT COMMENTS. THE
PRINTED COMMENTS WILL BE ATTACHED TO THE PAPER COPY OF THE ENTRY
SUMMARY IN THE SAME MANNER AS THE PAPER REJECT SLIP ON PAPER ENTRY
SUMMARIES. ABI FILERS WILL ANNOTATE THAT THE RETURNING SUMMARY HAS AN
ELECTRONIC INVOICE ON FILE.

THE INCOMING ENTRY SUMMARY PACKAGE WILL BE TIME/DATE STAMPED, AS DONE
CURRENTLY WITH PAPER SUMMARIES. THE FULL SUMMARY PACKAGE WILL BE
ROUTED BACK TO THE APPROPRIATE REVIEWING TEAM FOR REVIEW AS IS
CURRENTLY DONE. ALL REJECTED SUMMARIES WILL RETURN TO THE COMMODITY
TEAMS FOR REVIEW AND LIQUIDATION.

IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR CLIENT REPRESENTATIVE.
