 January 4, 2022Schedule B and Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) Updated in the Automated Export System (AES) Effective immediately, the Schedule B and Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) tables have been updated to accept the 484(f) statistical changes to the January 1, 2022 codes. AES will accept shipments with outdated codes during a grace period for 30 days beyond the expiration date of December 31, 2021. Reporting an outdated code after the 30-day grace period will result in a fatal error. The ACE AESDirect program has been updated with the January 1, 2022 codes and will accept shipments with outdated codes during the grace period. There will be a second AES update later this month to add new Schedule B and HTS codes resulting from international changes to the 2022 Harmonized System. The 2022 Schedule B and HTS tables are available for downloading at: http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/aes/documentlibrary/#concordance The current list of HTS codes that are not valid for AES are available at: http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/aes/documentlibrary/concordance/hts-not-for-aes.html For further information or questions, contact the U.S. Census Bureau’s International Trade Indicator Micro Analysis Branch: Telephone: (800) 549-0595, select option 2 for International Trade Indicator Micro Analysis Branch Email: eid.scheduleb@census.gov Online: www.census.gov/trade Blog: https://www.census.gov/newsroom/blogs/global-reach.html We’re Here to Help We’re here to help you get the most out of Census Bureau data.
