eManifest

eManifest is an electronic system used by customs agencies to collect and manage information about shipments, vehicles, and cargo before they arrive at border crossings. It allows importers, carriers, and customs officials to electronically submit detailed data in advance, improving efficiency, security, and compliance. By digitizing this process, eManifest reduces paper-based documentation, accelerates inspections, and helps prevent illegal activities such as smuggling. Essentially, it streamlines cross-border trade by enabling faster, more accurate exchanges of shipment information, benefiting businesses and government agencies alike.
