Currently there are no tariff flags for CPS. So, there is no message set to be sent. CPS conducts reviews on entries by different factors. The entry should get may proceeded in a timely manner.
Frequently AskedQuestions:
1. Is cargo free to continue to move through the port after the “Under Review” message is received, but before the “May Proceed” is sent?
\Yes, cargo continues through the port unimpeded, unless CPSC requests an “Intensive Exam,” or an “Intensive Exam with Documents Required Request,” and the request is approved by CBP, or if CBP or another PGA has reason to examine the cargo under their authority.
2. What messaging will trade receive from CPSC?
Trade will initially receive an “Under Review” message if an entry is filed containing a Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) code of interest to CPSC (see list of product categories above). In addition, if CPSC determines that an examination is needed, trade will receive an “Intensive Exam,” “Intensive Exam with Documents Required,” “Hold Intact,” or “Hold Intact with Documents Review “message.
3. Will my shipment be stopped automatically at the border if it has goods covered by those HTS codes?
No. This messaging alone will not stop cargo. CPSC must request an intensive examination for CBP to stop the cargo for CPSC purposes.
4. How long will it take CPSC to review the entry data and complete its review? How much time is this adding to the processing of my entry?
After receiving the entry information, CPSC intends to review the data promptly and provide the disposition back to trade, usually via a “May Proceed” message. If CPSC does not complete its review within the proposed period outlined above, a “May Proceed” notification will be sent automatically.
5. What happens if CPSC does not respond in a timely fashion?
When the stated timeframe expires without further action, CPSC systems will automatically send a “May Proceed” message to ACE. If no additional requirements were placed by other agencies, this will trigger the 1USG Notification.
