STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE

5-Step Seamless Cargo Execution

A disciplined, transparent, and technology-backed sequence from initial rate assessment to final offloading at your warehouse or job site.

PHASE 01

1. Tariff Assessment & Quotation

Our commercial desk analyzes cargo specifications, dimensions, EAC CET HS Codes, and Incoterms (CIF/FOB/DAP) to provide an all-inclusive transparent freight and customs quotation.

  • Accurate Duty & Tax Estimation
  • Multi-Corridor Route Comparison
PHASE 02

2. Documentation & Compliance Audit

We verify all statutory import/export documents prior to vessel arrival (Original B/L, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, TBS/PVoC Certificate of Conformity) to ensure zero port fines.

  • TBS / PVoC Compliance Verification
  • Pre-Arrival Document Audit
PHASE 03

3. TANCIS Customs & Shipping Release

We lodge declarations electronically in TANCIS, facilitate TRA duty assessments or Single Customs Territory (SCT) declarations, settle port wharfage, and secure the Delivery Order (D/O).

  • Rapid Channel Verification (Green/Yellow/Red)
  • Direct DP World & TASAC Settlement
PHASE 04

4. Loading, ECTS Sealing & Transit

Cargo is securely loaded onto inspected heavy commercial trucks, sealed with TRA electronic satellite tracking seals (ECTS), and dispatched along secured transit corridors with 24/7 telematics.

  • 24/7 Live Satellite GPS Tracking
  • Dedicated Journey Management Plan
PHASE 05

5. Border Clearance & POD Handover

Our border agents clear transit bonds at exit checkpoints (Tunduma, Kasumbalesa, Rusumo), escort cargo to destination premises, oversee offloading, and return signed Proof of Delivery (POD).

  • Fast Border Clearance & Bond Release
  • Immediate Digital POD Transmission
24/7 CO-PILOT
