CSMS # 63773737 - REMINDER: ACE Drawback Enhancements Set to Deploy January 21: New Petroleum Superfund Tax Certification Indicator and Validations of Oil Spill Tax and Petroleum Superfund Tax Claims
On January 21, 2025, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will deploy enhancements to Drawback functionality in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). Below is an overview of the changes that impact trade users:
New certification indicator for petroleum Superfund tax drawback claims
Beginning on January 21, 2025, filers can electronically certify petroleum Superfund tax drawback claims. Filers must use an electronic Superfund Tax Certification Indicator when submitting Superfund Tax claims for the claims to be accepted by ACE.
New validations and associated error messages
When applicable, ACE will validate that a petroleum Superfund tax drawback claim has been certified. For missed or incorrect application of the certification, ACE will send applicable error messaging.
CBP also enhanced validations for reviewing Oil Spill Tax and Superfund tax claim amounts. For incorrect claim amounts, ACE will send applicable error messaging.
For detailed information on these changes, review the following documents available on the
ACE CATAIR webpage

These changes are currently available in the Certification (CERT) software testing environment.
