THE ACE BASICS: DOCUMENT IMAGE SYSTEM
What is DIS?

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is currently transitioning cargo release and entry summary processing to a paperless
workflow in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). To support these transactions, filers can submit supporting
documentation to the government during the import process and for export manifest through the Document Image System (DIS). Instead of providing a
physical copy of a form, users should submit an electronic version of a document (i.e. PDF or JPEG). This process allows government personnel to receive
and review documentation in a more timely manner than with paper counterparts.
For details on the process, please reference the steps below.
