The central office of the State Customs Service has gained access to the office, which allows you to track the online logistics of containers, as well as see their accompanying documents before the arrival of goods in Ukraine.
What does join TradeLens give Ukraine?
- Ability to track the online logistics of each container in real time. All participants in the ecosystem will have access to information and can share it freely.
- Risks for container transportation will be less: the State Customs Service will be able to analyze information about the transportation of goods from the moment of the relevant order. This will increase the transparency, efficiency and security of container logistics.
- Low-risk goods will pass customs control in ports faster. Instead, the blockchain platform will "signal" cargo that will need to be scrutinized.
- Customs clearance of sea freight will become more transparent.
What can Ukraine use now to test the capabilities of the blockchain platform?
- Customs gained access to the blockchain platform - modern technological solutions in the field of container logistics.
- All parties to the shipping chain can now track the online logistics of each container. Access to information is different for each party: someone sees all the stages of transportation of goods and changes in it, and someone - only some of them. The sender, consignee and customs have the widest access (both in the country of departure and in the country of destination).
- Customs can send the container for a more thorough inspection, based on TradeLens data.
Currently, the work of the blockchain platform is being tested by the main office of the State Customs Service, but it will soon be accessible to customs that have access to ports. Work in test mode will take about a year.
