Transition of the Electronic Certification System (eCERT) to an Updated Version (eCERT 2.0)
This document announces the transition of the Electronic Certification System (eCERT) to an updated version, eCERT 2.0, which will become the sole method for participating in the eCERT process. The updated version includes three new features that will enhance the existing system by implementing additional validations that verify the authorized use of quota certificates. The use of eCERT 2.0 will allow for the decrementing of quota certificates to prevent those certificates from being overused. Participating countries will have enhanced querying capabilities to query and track actual certificate usage. Additionally, importers will be able to query their usage of the quota certificates via the Automated Broker Interface. In order to participate in eCERT 2.0, importers must provide the participating country with the Importer of Record (IOR) number in advance of filing an entry, and, in turn, the participating country must submit the IOR number as an additional data element of information within the transmission for eCERT 2.0. The transition to eCERT 2.0 will not change the tariff-rate quota or tariff preference level filing process or requirements. Importers will continue to provide the export certificate or certificate of eligibility numbers from the participating countries in the same manner as when currently filing entry summaries with U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The format of the export certificate and certificate of eligibility numbers will remain the same for the corresponding eCERT transmissions.

Vessel Repair Duties for Vessels Entering U.S. Ports; Correction
On July 29, 2022, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) published a Final Rule in the Federal Register that streamlines the vessel repair entry process by extending the timeframe for vessel operators to provide completed vessel repair entries and to apply for relief from assessment of duties associated with vessel repairs occurring abroad. The rule now extends the timeframe from 90 days to 150 days and eliminates the need for filing extension requests. That document inadvertently deleted the list of evidence required in Applications for Relief from the assessment of vessel repair duties. CBP is correcting that error by restoring the list of required documentation in the regulations.
