ACE Ocean eManifest
ACE Ocean eManifest (Automated Commercial Environment) is the name of the CBP (Customs & Border Protection) platform to process AMS Ocean eManifest submissions from ocean carriers, freight forwarders, port authorities, and terminal operators.

Section 321 eCommerce Ocean Shipments
International goods valued $800 or less can enter the US duty-free. Growing number of international businesses are moving the Section 321 cargo via ocean instead of air due to the following benefits:
● It allows businesses to avoid rising air freight rates
● Logistic companies are offering more ocean express shipping options (especially from Asia to any location in North America)
● It is more cost-effective service
● It allows businesses to avoid airport congestion
