CSMS #42616136 -ACE to Begin Sending Warning Error Messages to Trade for EPA VNE Errors

On June 6, 2020 and July 11, 2020, CBP expects to deploy updates to eleven (11) EPA Vehicles and Engines (VNE) rules to Production.

When deployed, the updates will result in ACE sending a warning message to trade as part of the SX or AX message, if errors in the EPAVNE data are found. Currently, trade is not aware of the errors because trade does not receive a specific error message (only a generic ‘under review’), which leads to follow-up contact with EPA. Receiving the specific errors will save processing time since trade will be able to make timely corrections to address the error. The specific errors trade will receive are:

PH8	INVALID LPCO NUMBER PER PGA
PF5	MISSING PG07 PER PGA
P35	MSNG OR INVLD ITEM ID NUM QUAL PER PGA
PE6	MISSING OR INVALID ITEM IDENT NUMBER
PJ5	MSNG OR INVLD ENTITY ROLE CODE PER PGA
PE8	MSNG OR INVALID MANUFACTURE DATE PER PGA
PF9	MISSING MODEL CODE OR MODEL NAME PER PGA

Trade can expect to start seeing these errors in the Certification region starting May 16. Filers will be notified via CSMS as to the specific errors that are moving into the Certification and Production environments on each deployment.

As a reminder, here is where trade can find information about filing EPA VNE:
