C-TPAT for Exporters Delayed

CBP delayed an update of the Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) portal, the agency said in a CSMS message (here). As a result "enhancements that were indicated during pre-release messaging, including the ability to apply as an Exporter, will not be available until further notice," CBP said. CBP previously said it would deploy C-TPAT 2.0 on May 16 (see 1504230015) and begin to allow for exporters to join the program on May 17 (see 1505110007).
