CSMS # 56355171 - UPDATE - U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to Process Port of Entry Changes Through ACE.
As noted by a recent CBP CSMS announcement, Port of Entry (PoE) changes can now be made using the Update Action Code (U) on an ACE Cargo Release transaction as suggested by trade. Trade users will no longer need to request an entry cancellation and submit a new entry to change a Port of Entry for entries with FDA data.
FDA will respond to an entry submission with a PoE change with new reason codes to acknowledge the POE change and indicate previous decision/status messages remain applicable. As is the case today, changes to the FDA message set will not be considered.
This enhancement is currently available in CERT.
FDA expects to begin processing PoE changes via ACE, including sending the new reason codes in Production no earlier than June 17.
