CBP CSMS Messages and Web Postings
CBP has issued a CSMS message stating that the FDA has become aware that some recent revisions to its Import Alerts are not being posted correctly on the FDA website. After further investigation, there are data system difficulties preventing the trade community from viewing the most up-to-date versions of the import alerts. The appropriate parties within FDA are aware of the situation and are working expeditiously to remedy the problem.
