Manifest
The full list of every consignment carried on a vessel or flight.
A manifest is the complete list of every consignment aboard a vessel, aircraft or truck, used by carriers and authorities to account for the cargo and screen it for risk. Most borders require it filed accurately and ahead of arrival; a late or wrong manifest can hold the whole load. Our systems build and submit manifest data automatically to keep clearance moving.
