Amending a CSN after entry inward: officer approval (Advisory 37/2026) vs 373/374

In this film

• Your filing's page says when customs' public record shows the vessel granted entry inward — the inward date on the shipping line's SAM record for your bill
• ICES Advisory 37/2026 still allows an amendment after entry inward, with the jurisdictional customs officer's approval of both your CSN amendment (SCA) and the shipping line's matching manifest amendment (SAA), before either is reflected
• The message guide also lists a refusal for an amendment after entry inward (373/374). Customs has not said which prevails — SCMTR neither blocks the amendment nor promises it
• Who files what, and when: your SCA first, the line's SAA after it — and after entry inward, the officer approves both
