This article defines the Customs Clearance API, why it is useful, its availability to users, and how to have it enabled
What is the Customs Clearance API?
The Customs Clearance API is a minimal tracking option that reports a limited set of milestones based on the MBL (master bill of lading) rather than the container.
This API seamlessly integrates with your existing systems and provides real-time access to critical customs data, allowing you to make informed decisions faster and optimize your workflow.
Why would I want to enable Customs Clearance?
Using the Custom Clearance API, you can accomplish the following:
- Automate routine tasks, reducing manual data entry and errors.
- Prioritize containers based on urgency and compliance requirements.
- Expedite the customs clearance process and minimize delays.
- Enhance visibility into the status of each Master Bill of Lading in real-time.
