A '''Split Shipment''' occurs when a single PAPS entry with a single PAPS number is being taken across the border at different times due to the size of the shipment.

It is not the responsibility of the carrier to determine if a load they are taking is a split shipment. The customs broker or importer should inform the carrier when they are taking a load that is clearing under a split shipment.

After the master shipment has been submitted and accepted in ACE by CBP, the carrier can then start creating the split shipments. To create a split shipment segment, navigate to the ACE eManifests menu option and click Start New ACE eManifest. Enter the ACE Manifest data such as a unique trip number, port, eta, and the truck, trailer and driver, then click Save and Start New ACE Shipment. Now enter the master shipment control number. (You must use the same shipment control number for all split shipment segments, and it must be the same shipment control number as the master shipment). Then click the checkbox Split Shipment Segment. The shipper, consignee fields can be left blank. You will then need to enter the quantity of this shipment segment in the Quantity box. The quantity of the split shipment segment must be the quantity that is physically on that load. (Each shipment segment quantity must be it's own individual quantity, and the total of all shipment segments must match the total of the master shipment). After you enter the shipment segment quantity you will not have to enter the commodity information as that information is on the master shipment originally submitted to CBP.
