German ports launch digital releases

BREMEN. Since October, the digital release of container imports has been carried out using the German Ports IT platform “Secure Release Order” (SRO). The first stage began on 1 October with shipping companies releasing their containers without a PIN. Forwarding agents, importers and transport companies will be included in the second stage by 2 November. From 3 November, usage will be mandatory at two terminals initially – one in either Bremerhaven or Wilhelmshaven and one in Hamburg. From 17 November, this will gradually be expanded to all other terminals.
