  3. Create Manifest

    This is the final and most critical step for the user.

    What is a Manifest? A Customs Manifest is a consolidated list of shipments (parcels) that are being transported together for a given day (usually picked up at the same time). We clear goods on a consignment level, meaning this step is strictly required to start the clearing procedure.

    Action: Group all Customs Shipments that are being picked up physically at the same time into a Manifest. and create Manifest via our API

    Significance: By creating the manifest, you are signaling that customs clearing can start.
