and enhance cargo security. ACE Cargo
Release filing minimizes the
redundancy of data submitted by the
filer to CBP through receiving carrier
data from the carrier. This design allows
the participants to file earlier in the
transportation flow. Guidance on using
ACE Cargo Release may be found at
https://www.cbp.gov/trade/ace/features.
It should be noted that ACE Cargo
Release was previously called
Simplified Entry.
New Changes:
1. Global Business Identifier (GBI):
Collectively, the updates proposed
below aim to enhance upstream supply
chain traceability and visibility while
addressing the increasing complexity of
global trade supply chains. All
participation and data submitted is
voluntary. Find more details about GBI
in the 1651–0141 GBI information
collection.
D The GBI Test is expanding the
available supply chain entity party
types from the original six optional
parties (Manufacturer, Shipper, Seller,
Exporter, Distributor, Packager), to
include two new parties:
‘‘Intermediary’’ and ‘‘Source,’’ along
with optional free text fields that will
allow filers to input additional
descriptions and information about the
specific party type. These party types
would be made available in the GBI
Enrollment database as well as the
Automated Commercial Environment
Cargo Release.
D A modification within the Global
Business Identifiers (GBI) Enrollment
database will allow the trade to submit
one or more of the unique GBI’s (the
Legal Entity Identifier (LEI), Global
Location Number (GLN), and Data
Universal Numbering System (DUNS))
for a supply chain entity, as opposed to
all three as previously approved and
announced. Furthermore, a related
programming update will enable trade
participants the ability to modify or
change a previous enrollment, including
updating or adding additional GBI
numbers.
D CBP intends to expand the choices
of identifiers available to filers over the
duration of the Test, including those
that at no cost to the government
provide access to the underlying entity
and product specific supply chain data
associated with the identifier. This
would enhance traceability for CBP
which may translate to facilitation
benefits and reduced industry costs.
CBP has initiated programming requests
in ACE to accommodate the intake of
additional GBI identifier qualifiers.
These changes are under development
and there is no defined timeline for
their completion. Specifically, CBP will
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 265001
begin by adding to the GBI Test the new
Altana ID (ALTA) maintained by Altana
Technologies, USG Inc. (Altana). The
addition of the ALTA identifier
alongside current and future GBI
identifiers will widen participants’
choices and allow CBP to continue to
evaluate the breadth and veracity of
entity and supply chain information
embedded within different types of
identifier solutions already being
leveraged by trade industry traceability
stewards. It will also contribute to CBP’s
ongoing exploration of how traced
supply chain information may be
ingested and operationalized for risk
management and facilitation purposes.
CBP will add any new identifiers into
the collection and submit to OMB for
approval as they are determined through
a change request (Form 83–C).
2. Russian Sanctions Executive Order
14114:
D New Data Elements are being added
to comply with the Russian sanctions
outlined in Executive Order 14114
published on December 22, 2023. The
data elements and burden are recorded
in the supporting statement of the 1651–
0NEW Russian Sanctions information
collection package.
3. Update to Form 3461/3461ALT
Instructions:
The instructions on the Form 3461/
3461 ALT have been updated to include
the new Russian sanctions data
elements and text field boxes, as well as
being updated to improve user
experience and clarity of the form. Find
a copy of the new form, with the
changes outlined included with this
