(17) In-Bond number (if an in-bond 

shipment). 

(18) Bill Quantity (if bill of lading 

quantity is specified in the entry, it 

becomes the entered and released 

quantity for that bill. If the bill quantity 

is not specified, full bill quantity will be 

entered and released for that bill). 

Data element (1) and data elements (6) 

through (12) are defined in the same 

manner as when they are used for entry 

filing on the CBP Form 3461. Data 

elements (2) through (5) and (13) 

through (15) are defined in accordance 

with the provisions of 19 CFR 149.3. 

The ACE Cargo Release Data set may 

be filed at any time prior to arrival of 

the cargo in the United States port of 

arrival with the intent to unlade. This 

data fulfills merchandise entry 

requirements and allows for earlier 

release decisions and more certainty for 

the importer in determining the logistics 

of cargo delivery. 

Functionality 

Upon receipt of the ACE Cargo 

Release data, CBP will process the 

submission and will subsequently 

transmit its cargo release decision to the 

filer. If a subsequent submission is 

submitted to CBP, CBP’s decision 

regarding the original submission is no 

longer controlling. 

The merchandise will then be 

considered to be entered upon its arrival 

in the port with the intent to unlade, as 

provided by current 19 CFR 141.68(e). 

V. Misconduct Under the Test 

An ACE test participant may be

the execution of participant obligations. 

Failure to abide by applicable laws 

and regulations.

apprises the participant of the facts or 

conduct warranting suspension and

suspension will begin. Any decision 

proposing suspension of a participant 

may be appealed in writing to the 

Assistant Commissioner, Office of 

International Trade within 15 calendar 

days of the notification date. An appeal

health interests or safety is concerned, 

a suspension may be effective 

immediately.
