Tanger Med port’s trade services, including import and export for container and Tir truck activities, will be fully paperless starting Monday, November 15.
Operators can complete the formalities of the port passage online, and electronically file all the necessary documents with the services responsible for the management of Import-Export activities, according to Tanger Med’s press release.
Users can also access this service by clicking “Port Community System” on Tanger Med’s website www.tangermedpcs.com, which offers a wide range of operational services such as the traceability of freight units, invoicing to distance, and online payment, the same source added.
During its test phase in 2021, Tanger Med supported several operators who signed up for this participatory digitalization process in order to manage all their formalities online.
Tanger Med’s port will continue to provide support to all operators, wanting to benefit from this new service, through training sessions as well as close support in order to succeed in this transition phase.
The Group noted the complete dematerialization of the port passage for import and export will make it possible to streamline operations, guarantee a high level of security for the flow of goods, and meet customers’ needs by strengthening the digitization, transparency, and predictability in the service of logistics competitiveness.
The total dematerialization of the port passage will become mandatory starting February 15, 2022, Tanger Med’s press release concluded.
Previously, the government sold 35% of its stake in the country’s main operator of ports, Marsa Maroc to Tanger Med for MAD5.48 billion.
Tanger Med, the biggest port in Africa, is favored by European manufacturers, seeking to bring supply chains near to the end market. The port is a hub for ocean carriers shipping local production plants of French cars such as Renault and Peugeot and has one of Africa’s most competitive business models.
