SUMMARY: On March 15, 2021, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 
published in the Federal Register an Interim Final Rule, which amends 
the CBP regulations to provide for mandatory advance electronic data 
(AED) for international mail shipments. That document inadvertently 
misnumbered the regulatory text listing the circumstances when AED is 
not required for international mail shipments and made a typographical 
error in the authority citation.

DATES: Effective July 22, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For policy questions related to 
mandatory AED for international mail shipments, contact Quintin Clarke, 
Cargo and Conveyance Security, Office of Field Operations, U.S. Customs 
and Border Protection, by telephone at (202) 344-2524, or email at 
[email protected]. For legal questions, contact James V. 
DeBergh, Chief, Border Security Regulations Branch, Regulations and 
Rulings, Office of Trade, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, by 
telephone at 202-325-0098, or email at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 15, 2021, CBP published in the 
Federal Register (86 FR 14245) an Interim Final Rule entitled Mandatory 
Advance Electronic Information for International Mail Shipments. As 
published, the Interim Final Rule inadvertently misnumbered the 
regulatory text found in 19 CFR 145.74(b)(2), which lists circumstances 
when AED is not required for international mail shipments. 
Specifically, section 145.74(b)(2) contains two subparagraphs numbered 
``(iii)''. CBP is correcting the numbering by re-numbering the current 
subparagraphs (iv) and (v) as subparagraphs (v) and (vi) respectively. 
CBP is further correcting the numbering by renumbering the second 
subparagraph (iii) as subparagraph (iv). Finally, CBP is correcting a 
typographical error in the Authority section.
