CBP officials raised the prospect of an indefinite delay to their plans to add a new data element for the Chinese postal code to cargo release filings, after customs brokers and software developers raised concerns about the new requirement during a regular bi-weekly call to discuss ACE on Oct. 27.
CBP plans to add a new mandatory data element for entries of goods that originate in China as part of its efforts to enforce the Uyghur Forced Labor Protection Act. The agency will on Dec. 15 deploy a new “UFLPA Region Alert” capability in ACE, a CBP spokesperson said Oct. 26, making “postal code” a “required field” when “Country of Origin is China for Entry and for Manufacturer Identification Code (MID) creation,” according to a recent update to the agency’s ACE development schedule.
CBP will delay until Dec. 15 its deployment of a new mandatory data element in ACE for goods with a country of origin of China, said a CBP spokesperson Oct. 26. The new UFLPA Region Alert capability in ACE will use a new mandatory data element for the Chinese manufacturer’s postal code to generate a warning message when a Uyghur region postal code has been provided, according to an earlier update to the agency’s ACE development schedule that had listed a scheduled deployment in November.

FDA is finalizing changes to its regulations that require electronic filing in ACE of PGA data for veterinary devices. The agency’s final rule requires filers of entries of veterinary devices to transmit the (1) FDA Country of Production; (2) complete FDA Product Code; (3) full intended use code; (4) and telephone number and email address of the importer of record. “These data elements are currently submitted for the electronic filing of entries containing food contact substances, drugs, biological products, human cells, tissues or cellular or tissue-based products (HCT/Ps), medical devices for human use, radiation-emitting electronic products, cosmetics, and tobacco products,” FDA said. The final rule takes effect Nov. 17.
