Census Publishes Blog Post About EEI Filing Requirements for Exports to Puerto Rico

The Census Bureau published a July 21 blog post about U.S.-Puerto Rico shipping regulations, detailing when exporters must file Electronic Export Information in the Automated Export System. The post covers filing requirements for shipping routes that include the mainland U.S., Puerto Rico and a foreign country. The Commerce Department is working on an advance notice of proposed rulemaking to remove certain EEI filing requirements for exporters shipping goods to Puerto Rico (see 2006030043).
