CBP: Electronic Issuance of Demands on Surety Pilot Program

Posted 11/9/23

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will conduct a National Customs Automation Program test regarding the electronic issuance of demands on surety for certain kinds of claims, the “Electronic Issuance of Demands on Surety” (EIDS) test. Test participation is limited to sureties that receive the “Notice of Penalty or Liquidated Damages Incurred and Demand for Payment” (CBP Form 5955A) for claims for liquidated damages or penalties.

CBP has begun development of an electronic liquidated damages and penalty process, and this notice announces the first test of a feature of the new process. The electronic liquidated damages and penalty process is intended to enhance, but not necessarily replace, the current paper process.
