Census Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on Mandatory AES and Option 4 Filing
Today the U.S. Census Bureau issued in the Federal Register an advance notice of proposed rulemaking to announce and to solicit comments on the Census Bureau's intent to propose a rule that would make mandatory the filing of all export shipments requiring Shipper's Export Declaration (SED) information on the Automated Export System (AES)/AESDirect.
Census also requests comment on its intention, subject to agreement with the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and other federal agencies participating in the AES, to modify the AES Option 4 post-departure filing program. Written comments on the proposed changes must be submitted to Census by November 21, 2003.
