Advance Cargo Information (ACI) pre-clearance system for exports to Egypt:

On 1 October 2021, the Egyptian government implemented the Advance Cargo Information (ACI) pre-clearance system for all sea freight via the National Single Window for Foreign Trade Facilitation (NAFEZA) System. The use of ACI for air freight will become mandatory on 1 October 2022.

Egyptian importers are required to use the NAFEZA Platform to register incoming shipments. All exporters of grains, pulses, nuts, seeds for sowing and other plant products to Egypt are required to register their company and complete ACI for shipments exported to Egypt using the CargoX Platform.

Further information on ACI and the requirements for exporters can be found on the CargoX website.
