Alfa Global Family provides a range of digital tools to assist members in complying with global customs filing requirements. Our systems are designed to streamline your processes, improve accuracy, and meet regulatory obligations in key international markets.
The Automated Manifest System (AMS) is a critical requirement by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for advance cargo manifest data. For ocean freight, cargo details must be submitted at least 24 hours before loading onto a U.S.-bound vessel. Alfa offers the technology and expertise to help you meet AMS requirements seamlessly.
Canada’s eManifest initiative, led by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), enhances cross-border trade security and efficiency. It requires carriers, freight forwarders, and importers to electronically submit advance commercial information before cargo reaches the Canadian border. Alfa supports eManifest compliance, ensuring quick clearance for low-risk shipments and effective risk assessment for higher-risk cargo.
The Importer Security Filing (ISF) rule, in effect since 2009, mandates the submission of specific cargo data to U.S. Customs before arrival at U.S. ports. With Alfa's integrated IT systems, you can process ISF filings effortlessly, staying compliant with these critical regulations.
Alfa simplifies your compliance with the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) by providing tools to file individual tariffs directly, independent of master carriers. This cost-effective solution streamlines the process, saving you time and resources.
The South African Revenue Service (SARS) requires electronic filings to ensure proper tax and customs compliance. Alfa supports SARS eFiling with advanced IT solutions, promoting legitimate trade and safeguarding the economy and society.
The Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) is the CBP’s system for electronic cargo manifests. Carriers must submit ACE manifests at least one hour before arriving at U.S. land borders. Alfa equips you with the tools to ensure timely and accurate ACE submissions.
The Air Cargo Advance Screening (ACAS) Program, active since 2018, requires advance submission of air cargo data for shipments entering the United States. Alfa's IT platforms make meeting ACAS filing.
Alfa Global Family is dedicated to adapting to future regulatory changes. Should new filing requirements arise, we will provide the necessary tools and support to ensure our members remain compliant and efficient in the evolving global trade landscape.
