Customs forwarding software
Forwarding, the international despatch to and receipt of goods demands expertise and a single system that supports all customs flows, which is why our FMS software offers comprehensive customs functionality. Automated declarations, and automated corresponding documentation; whilst you retain continuous insight into the customs process.
Customs declaration software
In the Netherlands the declaration process with customs runs fully automated. Via EDI, our customs software works in sync with the systems used by Dutch customs and other government agencies. Leaving you to make quick and simple customs declarations.
Import & export declaration system (AGS)
The AGS is the new standard for customs declarations. This new customs system replaces Sagitta which is currently in use and will be introduced in phases. AGS1 and AGS2, for storage and import declarations, are now fully up and running. For AGS3 the Sagitta for export (DSU) will be replaced (if needed Sagitta export is available in our FMS).
EMCS
Customs must be informed of the movement of excisable goods between EU member states, so that excises can be levied in the country where the goods are consumed. Via the Excise Movement and Control System (EMCS) you make a direct disclosure (electronic administrative document) via the WMS of movements of excisable goods under excise-duty.
NCTS
Simple declarations in the FMS. At a glance you have an overview of the actual status of your NCTS (New Computerised Transit System) declarations.
Portbase
Portbase is the platform for the exchange of logistical information for the Dutch Ports of Rotterdam and Amsterdam. You can pre-register your containers directly at all terminals.
DGVS / Cargonaut
Cargonaut is the platform for reporting movements of goods at and around Schiphol, to the DGVS (Paperless Goods Movement Tracking System), without physical documentation.
GDB (common veterinary inward clearance)
nVWA (the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority)
Animal-derived products or live animals that enter the EU must be reported to the nVWA. Via our FMS software you can make direct (GDB) pre-registrations to the nVWA, and you can be kept up-to-speed with the checks being made.
Customs integration & compliance
By integrating customs processes with the FMS you significantly speed up the declaration process. Via the FMS all relevant customs data pertaining to the goods are entered; comprehensive integration prevents duplication and speeds up the process. Moreover, there is the option to predefine clearing checks at strategic points in the FMS activities so that all departments work efficiently together in accordance with the compliance stipulations imposed by customs.

Works
universally
On site
With the on-site variant the software is physically installed on your own server, be it at your offices, or externally with a data centre. The hardware is then managed by your own ITC department or by an external party. The software can subsequently be accessed within the organisation’s local area network (LAN).
In the cloud
If you would prefer your software ‘in the cloud’, then the software can be installed on a server somewhere in the ether that you link up with online, irrespective of your location. No additional worries about data & performance as ITC management is included in the monthly fee. Your ITC department manages the system purely at a functional level.
Hybrid
Hybrid is a combination of cloud and on-site systems. For example: the logistics software is on-site and other software such as CRM online, Office365 and Power BI is in the cloud. Everything is fully integrated, meaning the users are unaware which environment they are working in. Moreover, the same log-in details are used for all systems.
