what customers have to say about Cargo declaration EDI.
Market parties
Cargo declaration EDI is aimed at all declaring parties in the port with an in-house computer system. Before the shipping line/cargo handling agent can submit the brief declaration via Cargo declaration EDI, the vessel notification first needs to be submitted through the service
Vessel notification
.
Business issues
Submitting brief declarations in the past always used to be a labor-intensive, often paper procedure involving couriers and a substantial overlap in information. This resulted in unnecessary delays in the import and throughput of cargo.
