Request unloading authorization (UAR indicator)

You can consult information about the manifest. Click on the UAR (Unloading authorization request) status on the right of the screen:

In the Comment field (optional), you have the option to add a comment for customs. The local customs agent reviewing the UAR can view this comment. Click on Request.

The request is then submitted to your local customs office. This request is instantly and implicitly validated.

The UAR (Unloading authorization request) status on the right of the screen changed from grey to green.
