Regulatory authorities across the globe are rapidly moving toward a fully digital data-driven environment. This means that providing accurate electronic information has become the key to ensuring compliance for a faster, more efficient Customs clearance experience.
As an important part of this process, authorities closely review your Commercial/Proforma Invoice. So, by sharing a precise description of your goods with DHL electronically, clearance of your shipment can begin immediately – which means it can be delivered even more quickly.
The Goods Description on the Commercial Invoice is essential for DHL to prepare the Customs Declaration. It’s also critical to ensure that items are accurately described on the Waybill in order to streamline the security/safety screening performed by Customs Authorities. For example:
Accelerate process by sending accurate data to DHL
Ensure a smooth Customs Clearance experience
Avoid delays caused by missing or wrong information
