BRASS '''(Border Release Advanced Screening and Selectivity)''' is a U.S. [[Shipment_Types_For_ACE_and_ACI_eManifest|Shipment Type]] for goods to clear through [[US Customs and Border Protection - General Information|CBP]] in [https://www.borderconnect.com/ace-e-manifest/index.htm ACE Manifest]. It is designed to expedite the release of high-volume, highly-compliant cargo shipments, allowing the carrier to cross the border before the filing of a formal entry by the customs broker.<ref>CBP Shipment Types https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/documents/shipment_types_3.pdf</ref> | |||
To qualify for release under BRASS, the importer must provide the carrier with a C4 code that covers the goods being imported. The C4 code is a key element of the BRASS program and is usually provided in barcoded format. From the carrier side it is also a requirement that the driver for a load clearing under BRASS be FAST-approved. | To qualify for release under BRASS, the importer must provide the carrier with a C4 code that covers the goods being imported.
