CARGO CONTROL
SUBJECT : ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE REQUIREMENTS FOR ENTRY
RELEASE PROCESSING - CHANGE IN EFFECTIVE DATE
REFERENCE: HEADQUARTERS MEMORANDUM TO ALL ABI FILERS, DATED
MAY 2, 1995, FILE: ENT-1-FO:TC:C:E:O AD, SUBJECT: ULTIMATE
CONSIGNEE NAME AND ADDRESS REQUIREMENTS EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1995.
THE USE OF THE ACS ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NAME AND ADDRESS FILE WAS
TO BE EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1995, AND REQUIRED FOR ENTRIES PROCESSED
THROUGH BORDER CARGO SELECTIVITY AND CARGO SELECTIVITY ALONG THE
NORTHERN BORDER WHEN THE IR OR SSN IS NOT KNOWN. CERTAIN
PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCED BY FILERS WHILE TRANSMITTING THE
DATA IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH OUR ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE REQUIREMENTS.
WHILE THESE PROBLEMS ARE NOT PREVENTING FILERS FROM SUCCESSFULLY
ADDING NAMES AND ADDRESSES, WE BELIEVE THE JULY 1, 1995,
IMPLEMENTATION DATE SHOULD BE DELAYED.
PROGRAMMING CHANGES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN
IMPLEMENTED. AS A RESULT, WE HAVE EXTENDED THE IMPLEMENTATION
DATE TO AUGUST 21, 1995. THIS SHOULD GIVE ALL PARTIES INVOLVED
AMPLE TIME TO ENSURE ALL IMPLEMENTATION REQUIREMENTS CAN BE MET.
SHOULD QUESTIONS ARISE REGARDING WHO MUST BE THE ULTIMATE
CONSIGNEE AS DEFINED IN 19CFR142.3 PLEASE REFER TO T.D. 94-39,
IDENTIFYING INFORMATION REQUIRED ON ENTRY DOCUMENTS, PUBLISHED IN
THE APRIL 13, 1994 FEDERAL REGISTER.
SHOULD YOU NEED FURTHER INFORMATION, PLEASE CONTACT MS. ANGELA
DOWNEY OF THE CARGO CONTROL BRANCH AT (202)927-1082.
