12 Febbraio 2014 - 12:45PM
Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq:DSGX) (TSX:DSG), the global leader
in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, announced
that leading ocean carriers and non-vessel operating common
carriers (NVOCCs) have selected Descartes' Japan Ocean Advanced
Filing Rule (AFR) solution to help them comply with Japan's new
advanced cargo security initiative, which takes effect March 10,
2014.
Japan's AFR mandate requires ocean carriers and NVOCCs to
electronically submit data to Japan Customs on maritime container
cargo intended for a port in Japan no later than 24 hours before
departure of the vessel from the port of loading. Descartes' Japan
Ocean AFR solution helps logistics providers, large and small, to
cost-effectively meet the new filing requirements. Descartes has
successfully completed all technology test phases with Japan
Customs.
Leading carriers and NVOCCs adopting Descartes' new Japan AFR
service include:
- AC Container Line;
- Aqualine International;
- Dimerco Express Group;
- Kintetsu World Express;
- MIQ Logistics Japan;
- Mitsubishi Logistics;
- MOL Logistics;
- Schenker;
- Sumisho Global Logistics Japan;
- Tokyo Sanyu Shipping; and
- Zim Integrated Shipping Services.
"We're focused on working with our customers and regulatory
agencies around the world to help ensure the efficient and secure
movement of shipments across international borders," Ken Wood,
Executive Vice President, Product Strategy at Descartes.
"Descartes' Japan Ocean AFR solution leverages our extensive
experience in cargo security compliance and is built upon our
existing technology platform. It also utilizes Descartes' Global
Logistics Network (GLN), the world's largest multi-modal logistics
messaging network, to connect ocean carriers and NVOCCs to their
