Deployment Frequently Asked Questions

Can I file e-Manifest for a port where ACE isn't implemented?

Yes. However, the e-Manifest will reject and it will not satisfy the requirements of the Advance Notice Requirements since Customs will not be able to view the e-Manifest in their system. You will have to present a 7533 manifest at the time of crossing and ensure that the Customs Brokerage entry is input before you arrive Customs.

Which US/Canada ports have ACE/e-Manifest setup?

Please visit our e-Manifest Port Guide for the answer to this question.

Can I file e-Manifest now?

You can submit e-Manifest at any port, but Customs will only be able to view the e-Manifest at ACE implemented ports. ACE implemented ports can be viewed in our Port Guide.

When will e-Manifest be mandated?

Trucks entering the United States through all ports of entry in Washington and Arizona, and through the ports of Pembina, Neche, Walhalla, Maida, Hannah, Sarles, and Hansboro in North Dakota, will be required to transmit the advance information through the ACE Truck Manifest System (e-Manifest) effective January 25, 2007. e-Manifest will become mandatory for all other ports on a rolling implementation - always with a minimum of 90 days notice. See our Port Guide for more details.
