Import Procedures

From pre-alert to empty return — the steps and the documents you will need.

Import workflow

  1. Pre-alert Receipt

    Receive manifest, B/L data and container details from the principal.

  2. Documentation Check

    Verify data consistency and follow up corrections before cut-off.

  3. Discharge & Terminal Status

    Monitor discharge and investigate short-landed, over-landed, damaged or mismatched status.

  4. Release & Customer Service

    Process release or delivery-order steps within the principal's approved procedure.

  5. Empty Return

    Issue approved empty-return instructions and close the equipment cycle.

  6. Aging & Charges

    Follow up aged units and applicable charges under the approved tariff.
