Advanced Cargo Information (ACI) Platform Services

Streamlining Compliance for Global Cargo Operations with AI-Powered Technology

Advanced Cargo Information (ACI), also known as ACD or ECTN, enhances border security and customs efficiency by requiring operators to submit comprehensive shipment data before arrival. This digital pre-arrival system enables customs authorities to conduct risk assessments, optimize resource allocation, and expedite legitimate trade while strengthening enforcement capabilities against illicit activities.

What is ACI (Advanced Cargo Information)?

The Advanced Cargo Information (ACI) system is a modern, pre-clearance platform designed to empower government agencies by ensuring cargo data transparency and regulatory compliance before shipments arrive. ACI systems enable customs authorities to review and verify documentation in advance, strengthening border security and optimizing trade processes through early risk assessment and automated verification.

ACI is also referred to as ACD (Advanced Cargo Declaration). In some contexts, it is comparable to the ECTN (Electronic Cargo Tracking Note), as both aim to streamline the process of tracking and managing cargo shipments. These systems contribute significantly to efficient customs operations by reducing delays, minimizing risks, and ensuring compliance with international trade standards.
