Customs AES Participants

Answer

Customs AES Participants

Toparticipate in the AES (Automated Export System) program file a Letterof Intent with U.S. Customs. The letter should include basic companyprofile information. Upon receipt a U.S. Customs representative andCensus Client representative are assigned as technical advisors duringAES testing and implementation.

Next a customs client representative contacts you to discuss yourimplementation method: self-programming or use of a vendor or servicecenter. For more information call AES at 1-800-549-0595.

Then certification tests your ability to send and receive messagesand to respond to error messages. If you use an AES-certified vendoror service center the testing effort is minimal.

Note: During Phase 2 use test IDs instead of production IDs. Dataduplication and other complications may arise if you use productionIDs during testing. Test IDs are made available before testing begins.

Phase 2 testing completes when you can send documents to and receivedocuments from U.S. Customs without any problems errors delaysor failures.

Customs Partner IDs

The following are theIDs to use for the AES program:

  • Production?ZZ/USCSAES
  • Test?ZZ/USCSAESTEST
