On March 18, 2023, it is anticipated that U.S. Customs and Border Protection will require the input of Chinese postal codes into the ACE entry process.
The ACE deployment schedule indicates the following.

- Postal code will be a required field
- Users will receive an error message if the postal code provided is not a valid Chinese postal code
- Users will receive a warning message when a Uyghur region postal code has been provided
- Ability to update an existing MID with a postal code
- Includes EDI Impacts
