U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to strengthen CBP’s information collection requirements for low value shipments, also known as de minimis shipments. The proposed Entry of Low-Value Shipments (ELVS) rule will enhance supply chain visibility and will enable CBP to better interdict illegal shipments across U.S. ports of entry.

Members of the public will have 60 days to comment on the proposed rule. Individuals wishing to comment on the proposed rule may access the Federal e-Rulemaking Portal at www.regulations.gov and follow the instructions for submitting comments. Submissions must include the agency name and docket number.

The NPRM is currently posted for public display at: https://www.federalregister.gov/public-inspection/2025-00551/entry-of-low-value-shipments
