BILLING CODE 9111–97–P 

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND 

SECURITY 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection 

Australia Beef Imports Approved for 

the Electronic Certification System 

(eCERT) 

AGENCY: Customs and Border Protection, 

Department of Homeland Security. 

ACTION: General notice. 

SUMMARY: This document provides 

notice that effective January 3, 2011, the 

export certification requirement for 

imports of beef from Australia subject to 

quantitative restraints will be 

accomplished through the Electronic 

Certification System (eCERT). Beginning 

on that date, all such imports must be 

accompanied by an eCERT transmission 

in lieu of the paper export certificate. 

This change is being made at the request 

of Australia’s Department of Agriculture 

Forestry and Fisheries and with the 

approval of the United States 

Government. 

DATES: The use of the eCERT process for 

all Australian beef importations subject 

to within quantity restrictions will be 

effective for beef entered, or withdrawn 

from warehouse, for consumption on or 

after January 3, 2011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Richard Wallio, Quota Branch, Trade 

Policy and Programs, (202) 863–6508. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

There are existing quantitative 

restraints on beef from Australia 

pursuant to U.S. Note 3, subchapter XIII, 

Chapter 99, Harmonized Tariff Schedule 

of the United States (HTSUS), and 

subheading 9913.02.05, HTSUS. The 

U.S. Note states that the within-quota 

amounts will receive duty-free 

treatment if the importer makes a 

declaration to Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) that a valid export 

certificate issued by the Government of 

Australia is in effect for the goods. The 

existing tariff rate quotas and export 

certificate requirement for beef from 

Australia set forth in U.S. Note 3, 

subchapter XIII, Chapter 99, HTSUS, are 

derived from paragraph 3 of Annex I of 

the General Notes to the Tariff Schedule 

of the United States under Annex 2–B 

of the United States-Australia Free 

Trade Agreement. Section 132.15 of the 

CBP regulations (19 CFR 132.15) sets 

forth provisions relating to the 

requirement that an export certificate 

must accompany imports of beef subject 

to quota. 

The Electronic Certification System 

(eCERT) is a system developed by CBP 

that uses electronic data transmissions 

of information normally associated with 

a required export document such as a 

license or certificate to facilitate the 

administration of quotas and ensure that 

the proper restraint levels are charged 

without being exceeded. Australia 

currently uses the eCERT process for all 

dairy quota importations into the United 

States. 

Foreign countries participating in 

eCERT transmit information via a global 

network service provider. This allows 

connectivity to the CBP Automated 

Commercial System (ACS). When 

making entry, specific data elements 

transmitted to CBP by the importer/ 

broker must match eCERT data from the 

foreign country before any applicable 

quota is reported. The ability to have 

government-to-government transmission 

decreases the potential for 

circumvention of quotas resulting from 

counterfeit documents. 

Although the release of the shipment 

is not precluded by the absence of 

certificate information, no claims for a 

preferential duty rate will be considered 

unless the information transmitted by 

the filer matches the information 

transmitted by the foreign government. 

If the certification is not available at 

time of entry, the filer has the option to 

use the non-preferential rate of duty or 

warehouse, export, or destroy the 

merchandise. The filer may file a protest 

if the certification transmission is 

received after liquidation of an entry, 

using the appropriate guidelines. 

This document provides notification 

that Australia will be using the eCERT 

process for beef entries subject to 

quantitative quota restrictions beginning 

January 3, 2011. Such imports that are 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after that date 

must be accompanied by an eCERT 

transmission in lieu of the paper export 

certificate.
