(GLN)) for the entry filer and the
manufacturer/producer, seller and
shipper, and optionally, for the
exporter, distributor and packager. The
GBI identifiers are the new optional data
elements that are being collected to
better identify the legal entity that is
interacting with CBP. The data collected
under the ACE Cargo Release program is
intended to reduce transaction costs,
expedite cargo release, and enhance
cargo security. ACE Cargo Release filing
minimizes the redundancy of data
submitted by the filer to CBP through
receiving carrier data from the carrier.
This design allows the participants to
file earlier in the transportation flow.
Guidance on using ACE Cargo Release
may be found at http://www.cbp.gov/
trade/ace/features.
It should be noted that ACE Cargo
Release was previously called
Simplified Entry.

Overview of This Information
Collection
Title: Global Business Identifier (GBI).
OMB Number: 1651–0NEW.
Form Number: N/A.
Current Actions: This is a new
collection of information.
Type of Review: New Information
Collection.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Abstract: U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) is launching a Global
Business Identifier (GBI) Evaluative
Proof of Concept (EPoC) which aims to
determine a single identifier solution
that will uniquely discern main legal
entity and ownership; specific business
and global locations; and supply chain
roles and functions. Entry filers must
request permission to participate in the
GBI EPoC and must obtain and submit
all three GBI identifiers as part of the
application. The identifiers provide
additional information about trade
entities and supply chain locations
associated with U.S. imports, to CBP for
enrollment into the GBI EPoC and, if
selected, during the Entry process. The
three identifiers are:
• Legal Entity Identifier (LEI)—owned
and managed by the Global Legal
Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF)
• Global Location Number (GLN)—
owned and managed by GS1
• Data Universal Numbering System
(DUNS)—owned and managed by Dun
& Bradstreet (D&B)
GBI EPoC participants will also
provide applicant information:
Company/entity legal name, legal entity
headquarters and/or manufacturing site
address, business phone number
(associated with provided address),
company website, Manufacture/Shipper
Identification Code (MID), and
Authorized Economic Operator (AEO)
identification number (optional).

will be required to complete a GBI
enrollment process, via ABI, prior to
submitting the identifiers on an
electronic entry (CBP Form 3461). Filers
are responsible for the associated costs
to obtain all three identifiers and will
submit each identifier for the following
supply chain roles:
