    We provide comprehensive transportation services for our partners on the globe and always offer innovative solutions to deal with complex logistics challenges.

    You must have this certificate validated five days before the arrival at the latest or the consequences won’t be pretty. The penalty in the form of significant regulation charge determined by the yemeni National Port Officials is imposed to the cargo owner.
    Please note that we have received confirmation from the Beninese authorities that for vehicles inside containers, the cargo type should be “container”.
    This only goes for vehicles inside containers, so where the container number is clearly mentioned on the documents.

    Please do make sure to add the chassis number of the vehicles in the goods description field for this type of cases.

    Of course, vehicles that are not loaded in containers should be given the cargo type “RoRo”.

    Certificate cost depends on the number of Bill of Ladings and the containers, the country of origin, the port of discharge, etc. This is why we can’t give you an exact price for the CTN. But if you share your shipment’s details with us we can provide you the best charges for your certificate. We offer free quotation.

    A hard copy of the CTN certificate is generally not required, as the entire process is completed online. Digital validation and electronic submission suffice for customs and regulatory purposes.

    One of the primary problems that the ECTN (Electronic Cargo Tracking Note) system addresses in West African shipping is document fraud. Document fraud involves the use of falsified or fraudulent shipping documents—such as fake Bills of Lading, invoices, or packing lists—to facilitate illegal trade. This type of fraud can result in customs violations, financial losses, revenue leakage, and disruptions to legitimate supply chains. By requiring the pre-validation of cargo and documentation, the ECTN system enhances transparency, strengthens compliance, and supports more effective customs control.
