ACE FOR EXPORTS IS UP AND RUNNING ARE YOU?
The AESDirect Portal is now live in U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Automated Commercial Environment “ACE”. Have you set up your ACE Portal for exports yet?
Many exporters are now using ACE AESDirect not only for the filing of their Electronic Export Information “EEI”, but for reporting purposes as well. Exporters have found the new ACE AESDirect reports very helpful in identifying misfiled information. Filing your EEI timely and accurately is important. If you currently file your EEI information through your internal system, it would be a wise investment of your time to also open an ACE AESDirect Portal account as a back-up for your EEI filings.
To set up your company for the ACE AESDirect Portal please visit CBP’s website at: https://www.cbp.gov/trade/automated/getting-started/using-ace-secure-data-portal
If you don’t have the time or resources to get your ACE account set up MTC can help. Please contact an MTC representative today at matilda@merittradeservices.com for more information on how MTC can be your EEI filing agent.
