Declarations logged routinely

Our platform permits firms to declare 1000’s of low-value ecommerce items in a matter of minutes with no or little human intervention. This could be a sport changer for small and massive logistics firms working at such logistics hubs like Schiphol Airport the place time and planning is of essential significance”, says Haiti Arendi, co-founder of Feeport.

The platform now launches within the Netherlands and it’s meant for the Dutch logistics sector (customs brokers, final mile suppliers, postal service firms, and so on.). Haiti Arendi: “being a impartial expertise service supplier, we aren’t competing with the availability chain stakeholders, as a substitute we empower them with our expertise.” Customers of the platform can handle the customs clearance course of within the net interface, or use an API to submit declarations in their very own enterprise software program.
