Pre-Arrival Processing System (PAPS) is a U.S. shipment type for commercial goods to clear through U.S. CBP and on an ACE Manifest, and by a customs broker. Almost all goods are cleared as a PAPS shipment unless they specifically qualify for another release type, or are exempted from clearing as a PAPS, depending on the scenario.
