From Trade Documents
to an AI-Generated Declaration Draft
Invoices, packing lists and transport documents already contain much of the information needed for customs declarations. Customs Intelligent Document Processing extracts, structures and prepares the data for review, while you keep full control.
Step 1: Upload
Add invoices, packing lists or transport documents as PDFs, scans, photos or Excel files.
Step 2: Extract
Our AI reads and extracts parties, commodities, values and references automatically.
Step 3: Review
Check and edit the drafted data. Conflicting fields are shown side by side.
Step 4: Validate
Built-in checks and live commodity code search catch issues early.
Step 5: Submit
Use the verified data to complete and submit your declaration.
