Starting 1 April, Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) introduces new measures in the digitalisation of cargo processing on the import side through automatic nomination, a process through which shipment data will become available pre-arrival for economic operators.

As a result, ground handlers, agents, forwarders and hauliers will all be sooner aware as to what cargo is arriving for them.  As all parties receive a message that cargo is arriving while it is still (maximum four hours away) from landing, planning can commence at an earlier stage. Forwarders will thus know what is arriving, where they will be able to pick up their consignments, and, if necessary, plan to combine loads.
