Customs Filing API for Software Providers

Our customs filing API supports integration with major global customs authorities and their electronic filing systems

Customs Filing API

For over 20 years, Seatech Systems has provided customs filing technology used by shipping lines, shipping agencies, freight forwarders, terminals, and logistics providers. Our APIs allow software vendors to quickly add customs filing without building or maintaining their own compliance systems.

The platform enables customs filing providers to submit, validate, and monitor customs declarations across regions including Canada, the United States, the European Union, and Australia.

Submit customs declarations electronically through a secure REST API. Receive acknowledgements, status updates, validation messages, and filing responses in real time.
