SeaRates, an ERP-solution provider for freight forwarding and AEB, a global trade management software provider, have partnered to enable freight forwarders to digitize their supply chain processes.
With this collaboration SeaRates’ customers benefit from global coverage for customs clearances, offering a smooth, simple, and transparent import and export filing process.
This new partnership marks a major milestone in SeaRates' mission to digitally transform global trade and builds on AEB’s 40+ years of experience as a leading-edge customs solution provider.
The new, digital and highly automated customs clearance service offering provides excellent synergies with AEB’s membership in the Digital Freight Alliance, an initiative aimed at connecting global freight forwarders and providing access to innovative tools for business growth and international excellence.
Discover the benefits of digital customs clearance services at the SeaRates Trade Summit in Dubai. Our customs experts look forward to demonstrating the efficiency potential of AEB's customs broker network for your exports and imports. We welcome you to visit the AEB booth #8 and hope to you there soon.
Freight forwarders can book customs clearance directly within SeaRates’ ERP-solution, together with freight bookings or as a stand-alone service for other cross-border shipments.
Key features and benefits of the global customs clearance services include:
“We’re really excited about the collaboration with SeaRates. AEB’s long-held vision is digitalization of cross-border trade, and we see this as a game-changing market offer that will add real benefits to SeaRates’ customers globally,” said Markus Meissner, CEO of AEB.
“The cooperation with AEB is a major step in our mission to provide freight forwarders with the best web-based tools to enhance the growth of their business. Adding worldwide digitized customs clearance services from AEB is a significant benefit to our customers,” said Mike Bhaskaran, Chief Operating Officer of Digital Technology, and driving force behind SeaRates ERP.
A vast group of freight forwarders gained immediate and direct access to AEB’s customs clearance services when the integration in SeaRates ERP was completed in late 2024. The platform’s success has resulted in a large existing user base which is expected to grow even faster with more services and tools being added. SeaRates ERP has also been made an affordable and easily accessible choice for the 8,000 members of the Digital Freight Alliance, which offers a Premium Membership in which access to the platform is included.
