e-dec Import

E-dec will be gradually replaced by the new goods traffic system «Passar».
More information

Customs clearance of goods, known as cargo processing, is part of our core business. On the one hand, the services we offer are client-oriented, but at the same time we must keep our costs down, though without neglecting customs security.

In the past we had a broad range of products, all with the same aim: swift customs clearance of goods. Included were form-based and IT-based solutions for the importation, transit, and exportation of goods. This multiplicity of cargo processing products resulted in service offerings that were perceived as too broad and unclear. Frequently, the products offered were isolated solutions that were not sufficiently harmonized with one another.

Aims of e-dec

With e-dec we have developed a central cargo processing product which has replaced the existing products (e.g. customs clearance system M90).

E-dec has a modular structure. It can be used to declare goods for importation, transit or exportation electronically. These uniform processes result in cost savings.
