National Customs Automation Program (NCAP) Test Concerning Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Simplified Entry: Modification of Participant Selection Criteria and Application Process

This notice announces modifications to the National Customs Automation Program (NCAP) test concerning the simplified entry functionality in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). The test's participant selection criteria are modified to reflect that while importer self-filers must still hold a Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) Tier 2 or higher status to be eligible to participate in the test, the C-TPAT status of an importer for whom a customs broker files a Simplified Entry is no longer an eligibility criterion. In addition, the test is no longer limited to nine (9) participants and, for a limited time, CBP is accepting applications from interested parties wishing to participate in the test. Prior applicants who were not accepted to participate in the test must re- apply for consideration.
