challenges

Which CUSTOMS CLEARANCE challenges are you working on?

Removing Manual and Paper-Based Processes

Traditional customs clearance processes often rely on manual and paper-based documentation, record-keeping, and communication. This can result in inefficiencies, increased processing time, and a higher likelihood of errors or lost paperwork.

A Lack of Visibility and Transparency

Importers may face challenges in gaining near real-time visibility and transparency into the status of their shipments, especially during the customs clearance process. Traditionaly a lack of robust tracking systems or timely updates, makes it difficult for importers to monitor and manage their goods effectively.

IMPROVING Communication and Responsiveness

Information trapped in silos, delays in response, restricted accessibility, and absence of proactive communication may impede the importer’s capacity to promptly resolve pressing concerns or acquire timely updates.

Penalty Considerations

Importing goods requires a thorough understanding of import regulations, classification codes, valuation rules, and other compliance aspects. Errors in declarations may resulting fees and significant fines from local customs authorities.

better Value-Added Services

Traditional customs brokers have strong expertise in customs clearance services but may not provide additional supply chain services up and down stream.

Scalability and Flexibility

Importers may find it challenging to align their customs clearance processes with their ever-evolving import requirements, such expanding into new markets, nearshoring, and changes in sourcing patterns.

Stronger security and Data Protection

Importers may face concerns regarding the security and safeguarding of their sensitive import data when relying on traditional customs brokers. The utilization of outdated systems or inadequate data security measures can potentially subject importers to severe risks, including data breaches and unauthorized access to their confidential information.

increased Speed of information flow

The absence of complete data sets often leads importers making hasty decisions based off incomplete information. Gathering all the required data requires time and coordination to prevent further delays.

management of information stuck in emails

The dispersion of shipment information across multiple email chains and different email addresses may create a complex situation. Finding the specific information required to fulfill an urgent request is not a simple task.
