What is an AES proof of filing citation?
The AES proof of filing citation is the notation placed on the air waybill or electronic shipping label that provides evidence that export information has been filed, received and accepted and the shipment has been approved for export by AES. The valid AES proof of filing citation formats are: • AES Predeparture — Internal Transaction Number (ITN). The ITN is issued when AES has received the data and has approved the shipment for export. An example is AES X20080702456789. • AES Postdeparture — USPPI is filing the EEI (formerly Option 4). An example is AESPOST 34523489700 07/02/2008. • AES Downtime (can only be used when AES or AESDirect is unavailable and AES has authorized its use). An example is AESDOWN 34523489700 07/02/2008.
