Air Freight incorporated in Egypt’s Advance Cargo Information (ACI)
The trial period of the Advance Cargo Information System (ACI) on air freight is currently ongoing, its end date is not yet announced. It is required that basic data of the ‘Supplier, Importer and the Imported Goods’ be declared prior to shipment through the new online portal for the purpose of Customs Risk Assessment.
Upon approval of the import, an ACID number will be issued, which must appear on all documentation, including the Bill of Lading and Carrier Manifest.
The German - Arab Chamber of Industry & Commerce recommends that all parties (importer& exporter) start registering on CargoX and Nafeza to ensure a smooth process.

The German-Arab Chamber of Industry and Commerce has well studied the ACI rules and regulations and familiarized itself with the procedures. It is mandatory for all importers in Egypt and exporters outside of Egypt to use the system. Should you encounter any challenges, we will be happy to answer your questions.
