Customs and Trade Compliance Automation
Classify goods, validate documentation and check restricted party lists automatically, so shipments clear the border on first submission rather than sitting in a queue over a data error.
Typical outcomes for this kind of engagement. Results depend on your data and starting point.
Customs classification is done manually against tariff schedules running to thousands of headings, and getting it wrong means either overpaying duty or facing penalties and retrospective assessment.
- Manual tariff classification against schedules running to thousands of headings
- Misclassification causing either overpaid duty or penalties and retrospective assessment
- Documentation errors found at the border rather than before submission
CloudGate automates classification, documentation validation and screening before submission: product descriptions and specifications are classified against the tariff schedule with the reasoning retained, documentation is cross-validated for consistency across the shipment pack, and restricted party screening runs on every counterparty.

- Cross-document validation for value, quantity, description and certificate consistency
