Waiver Certificate (ECTN)
We process the electronic cargo tracking note (ECTN/BSC) required for the transport of goods to West and Central African countries.
What is the Waiver / ECTN certificate?
The ECTN (Electronic Cargo Tracking Note) or Waiver Certificate is a mandatory electronic document required by customs authorities in numerous African countries for the import of goods. Its purpose is to track cargo from origin to destination and prevent customs fraud.
