3) CBP Extends and Modifies Global Business Identifier Test, Adds New Identity Management Partner
On February 12, 2024, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced in the Federal Register an extension and modification of its National Customs Automation Program Test, now known as the Global Business Identifier Test (GBI Test). This initiative, formerly referred to as the Global Business Identifier Evaluative Proof of Concept (GBI EPoC), will now run through February 23, 2027, subject to any further changes or early termination.
Notably, CBP has partnered with Altana Technologies USG Inc. (Altana), adding them as a new Identity Management Company (IMC) alongside existing partners Dun & Bradstreet, GS1, and the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation. This inclusion allows test participants to use identifiers provided by Altana in the designated GBI fields.
The test's scope has been expanded by removing previous limitations on commodity types and countries of origin for eligible entries. It also features updated contact information and new web addresses for obtaining GBIs. Importers of record and licensed customs brokers are invited to participate in the test until its conclusion, and public feedback is welcomed at [email protected] throughout the test period.
The revised notice reorganizes guidance for both participants and companies interested in supporting CBP as GBI Test IMCs, ensuring clarity and accessibility for all stakeholders involved.
