FDA's OASIS Will Experience Intermittent Outages on Dec 4-5

CBP has issued a CSMS message announcing that FDA’s OASIS import system will experience intermittent outages for maintenance on December 4, 2010 starting at approximately 02:00 am (0200) through December 5, 2010 01:00 am (0100). Delays in data transmission during this maintenance period are not expected to last more than 20 minutes at a time, but may be experienced several times throughout the maintenance period indicated.

Timely, relevant coverage of court proceedings and agency rulings involving tariffs, classification, valuation, origin and antidumping and countervailing duties. Each day, Trade Law Daily subscribers receive a daily headline email, in-depth PDF edition and access to all relevant documents via our trade law source document library and website.

If necessary, FDA will operate under the Prior Notice Scenario 2 contingency. During this downtime ACS, PNSI and the link between ACS and OASIS are operational. However, the OASIS downtime will prevent submitters who filed via ABI from receiving Prior Notice confirmation and would prevent CBP from auto-checking the Prior Notice confirmation for ABI filers. See CSMS message for details on procedures to be followed during the outages. Questions during downtime should be referred to FDA’s Prior Notice Center at (866) 521-2297.
