| Get Ready For “10+2” Importer Security Filings |
|
November 7, 2008 It is our understanding that the OMB review process is complete and publication of the new regulations may occur as soon as next week. For background information on the 10+2 Importer Security Filings visit our web page, “10 + 2 What Does It Mean For You?”. It is our understanding from published sources that implementation of the new requirements be subject to a mandatory 60-day Congressional review period (essentially a 60-day delay) and then one year of informed compliance. A comment period will begin on June 1, 2009, giving the trade community an opportunity to describe what is working and what is not, and based on those comments, the Obama administration may decide to continue moving forward as it is, or make modifications if there are a lot of negative comments. The data elements have been divided into two tiers, which are broken out below. Tier I will go into affect as CBP originally envisioned. A start date for providing Tier II information has still not been established. As originally envisioned, all data elements will be required 24 hours before loading the vessel. Tier I Information
Tier II Information
