Export declaration

Fast, lower-cost export declarations for businesses

Upload one or more commercial invoices as PDFs, provide export data through Excel/CSV, or submit it directly through the REST API. Declarium extracts or ingests the information, makes it reviewable and correctable before processing, and often provides the export document and MRN in under 10 minutes when the data is complete – at a significantly lower cost than traditional customs brokers.

Solution approach

Export document and MRN often in under 10 minutes

Once complete and plausible export data is available, Declarium validates it digitally, prepares the export declaration, and returns the export document and MRN after acceptance. Standardized workflows accelerate recurring exports without coordinating status and documents across separate email threads.

  • Export document and MRN often in under 10 minutes when data is complete
  • Digital completeness and plausibility validation
  • Central status and documents for operational teams

Why Declarium costs less than traditional customs brokers

Traditional broker workflows often require repeated manual capture and validation for each shipment. Declarium receives export data in a structured form, validates it digitally, and makes recurring information reusable. This lowers manual processing effort and the cost per export declaration, especially at recurring export volumes.

  • Less manual data entry for each export declaration
  • Reusable workflows for recurring exports
  • Significantly lower costs than traditional broker processing

Which data is needed for the export declaration?

Fast processing depends on complete and plausible customs data. Typical inputs include the invoice, goods description, commodity code, values, weights, consignee, Incoterms, packages, EORI, and transport information. Declarium brings these inputs together in a controlled digital export workflow.

  • Extract invoice data from PDFs with Document AI or ingest export data through Excel/CSV uploads, REST API, or system exports
  • Identify missing or contradictory data before filing
  • Prepare validated data in a structured form for the export declaration

Start quickly: invoice PDF, Excel/CSV, or API

Companies do not need to begin with a large IT project. They can upload commercial invoices for extraction with Document AI or ingest structured export data through Excel/CSV files. For recurring volume, the customer system can later connect to the Declarium REST API.

  • Start without full ERP integration
  • AI extraction or structured data intake from existing export documents
  • Later API integration by the customer team or integration partner

For exports to third countries such as Switzerland, the UK, or the US

An export accompanying document becomes relevant when goods leave the EU for a third country and an electronic export declaration is required. For companies, the practical question is whether the shipment can move with a valid document, MRN, and clear status in time.

  • Exports to Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other non-EU countries
  • Export processes from Germany and EU-adjacent goods flows
  • Clear status for shipping, warehouse, logistics, and customer service

Export document, MRN, and proof of exit in operations

After export declaration acceptance, the document is not the only relevant feedback. Operations teams need MRN, status, documents, and later proof of exit for export evidence. Declarium makes this feedback visible so shipping, accounting, and customs teams do not work in separate email threads.

  • Export document and MRN after export acceptance
  • Status and document feedback for operations teams
  • Proof of exit and archive for evidence and audit workflows

Fewer follow-up questions when export data is incomplete

Missing goods data, unclear values, wrong consignee data, or contradictory documents delay export document creation. Declarium supports a controlled question workflow so exceptions become visible and do not remain hidden in individual inboxes.

  • Questions for missing or contradictory data
  • Documented clarification of exception cases
  • Expert service fallback for customs questions

For recurring exports instead of one-off chaos

Declarium fits especially well when export accompanying document creation is a recurring part of shipping, warehousing, e-commerce, industry, or logistics. For very rare private one-off cases, a simple manual provider may be enough; recurring B2B export is where data validation, status visibility, and repeatable workflows create value.

  • Industrial and trading companies with recurring exports
  • E-commerce, fulfillment, and warehouse workflows
  • Freight forwarders, logistics providers, and internal customs teams
