Let‘s talk about e-freight
The IATA e-freight initiative is an industry-wide program that
aims to reduce the use of paper documents in the airfreight
supply chain by moving to a simpler, paper-free, electronic
environment. It involves among others:
 airlines
 shippers
 freight forwarders
 ground handling agents
 and customs authorities

Documents
Sent electronically by
origin shippers and/or
freight forwarders to
destination either using
agreed EDI standards
(XML) or simple pdf
documents – often
done in ‘pre-alerts’
already today
Replaced with IATA
Cargo-IMP electronic
messages (FWB, FHL,
FFM, FSU), already in
use by many airlines
and forwarders (in
future, XML equivalents
will be also available)
IATA e-freight is only
implemented in
locations where import
and export declarations
and release are already
electronic and where
customs agree they do
not need original paper
