Post-Entry Amendment Processing
Test
AGENCY:

ACTION:
General notice.
rmajette on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
SUMMARY: This document announces a
modification of U.S. Customs and
Border Protection’s (CBP) Post-Entry
Amendment Processing test. The test
allows the amendment of entry
summaries prior to liquidation. The
modification to the test requires the filer
of a post-entry amendment to submit an
individual amendment letter no later
than 20 days prior to the scheduled
liquidation date for the subject entry
summary. This document also sets forth
that CBP is terminating the
supplemental information letter policy
so that the post-entry amendment
procedure will be the only procedure for
submitting post summary adjustments
on entry summaries prior to liquidation.
Except for the modification set forth in
this document, the test procedure is the
same as that set forth in previously
published Federal Register notices. The
document also announces that the test
is being extended for another year.
DATES: The Post-Entry Amendment
Processing test modification set forth in
this document is effective on September
20, 2007. The test is extended for a oneyear period commencing on August 21,
2007. CBP will discontinue accepting
Supplementary Information Letters on
September 20, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The U.S. Customs Service (Customs;
now U.S. Customs and Border
Protection or CBP) announced and
described the Post-Entry Amendment
Processing test (the test or PEA test) in
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:08 Aug 20, 2007
Jkt 211001
a general notice document published in
the Federal Register (65 FR 70872) on
November 28, 2000. The notice
announced that the test would
commence no earlier than December 28,
2000, and run approximately one year.
The test was extended on three
subsequent occasions by publication of
notice in the Federal Register as
follows: to December 21, 2002 (67 FR
768; January 7, 2002); to December 31,
2003 (68 FR 8329; February 20, 2003);
and to December 31, 2004 (69 FR 5860;
February 6, 2004).
The PEA test procedure, authorized
under section 101.9(a) of the CBP
regulations (19 CFR 101.9(a)), allows
importers to amend entry summaries
(not informal entries) prior to
liquidation by filing with CBP either an
individual amendment letter upon
discovery of certain kinds of errors or a
quarterly tracking report covering
certain other errors that occurred during
the quarter. The November 28, 2000,
and the February 6, 2004, Federal
Register notices describe in full detail
the PEA test procedure, including an
explanation of the kinds of errors
mentioned above. Also, an explanation
of the procedure is available at
www.cbp.gov (under the following links:
‘‘Import’’ and ‘‘Cargo Summary’’).
Modification
Under the PEA test, an individual
amendment letter (also known as a
single PEA) must be filed by the
importer (or its broker) upon discovery
of: (1) A revenue related error in an
entry summary where the error results
in either an overpayment or
underpayment of duties, taxes, and/or
fees in the amount of $20 or more; (2)
any error in an entry summary relating
to antidumping or countervailing duties;
and (3) any non-revenue related
statistical information errors in an entry
summary that must be reported to the
U.S. Census Bureau. Prior to publication
of this document, individual
amendment letters were required to be
filed promptly after discovery of the
error(s) and prior to liquidation of the
one or more entry summaries covered in
the letter.
Effective upon publication of this
document in the Federal Register, an
importer or broker filing a single PEA
must submit the PEA at least 20 days
prior to the scheduled liquidation date
of each entry summary covered in the
letter. This 20-day period will provide
CBP sufficient time to review all entry
summaries covered in a single PEA
prior to the scheduled liquidation date.
Liquidation of single PEAs (i.e., of the
entry summaries covered) under the test
is a manual function and past
PO 00000
Frm 00056
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
performance has shown that more time
is needed to process these amendment
requests effectively. Single PEAs
submitted untimely will be rejected and
returned to the filer. In those instances
where the single PEAs are submitted
timely but the entry summaries are not
unset or processed by the scheduled
liquidation date and liquidation occurs
without benefit of the requested
amendment, CBP will treat them as
protests under 19 U.S.C. 1514 or, if
appropriate in the circumstances, as
evidence warranting reliquidation under
19 U.S.C. 1501.
Other than this modification, the test
procedure remains as set forth in
previously published notices.
Extension
This notice announces a further
extension of the PEA test for a period of
one year, such period to commence on
the date this document is published in
the Federal Register.
Discontinuation of the SIL Policy
Finally, as of the effective date of this
notice, the PEA test will be the only
procedure in place for post summary
adjustments prior to liquidation, and the
SIL procedure (see Administrative
Message 97–0727, August 3, 1997) will
be discontinued. CBP will issue an
administrative message regarding this
change soon after publication of this
notice.
