Parties
Lists screened
OFAC SDN, BIS Denied Persons, BIS Entity List, EU consolidated and UN Security Council.
Customs brokerage
The checks happen before you approve, not after.
An eight-step review that front-loads every screening, classification and timing question — so the file is either clean when it reaches you, or it tells you exactly why it isn't.
The review
Eight steps, in the order the work actually happens.
Intake forms
Review what the importer submitted, with confidence flags on any field the parser inferred rather than read.
Booking info
Vessel, voyage, ports, ETD/ETA and container detail, reconciled against the carrier's own booking confirmation.
Parties
Importer of record, EIN, shipper and consignee — screened as you go, not at the end.
Documents
Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading. Gaps are called out before you proceed.
HTS & classification
Per-line suggestions with duty rates. Override any line; the override is what goes on the record.
Valuation
Entered value, duty liability and first-sale scenarios where the transaction supports it.
Magaya preview
The draft as Magaya will receive it, with a pre-flight check on the fields that commonly reject.
Approve or reject
One decision, written immutably with your identity, timestamp and reasoning.
Compliance
Screening that blocks, not screening that warns.
A denied-party match is not a notification you can dismiss. Above the confidence threshold, approval is refused.
Thresholds
Graded outcomes
A clear result passes. A near-match escalates and needs supervisor acknowledgement. A high-confidence match blocks approval outright.
Coverage
Other regimes
Antidumping and countervailing duty flags, FDA and EAR checks, and trade-agreement eligibility.
Scope
What iCarriage does and doesn't do here.
It does
- Prepare and validate the entry packet
- Screen parties and flag duty exposure
- Track the ISF window and warn before it closes
- Generate the cover letter and Magaya draft
- Record every decision immutably
It does not
- — File directly with CBP. A licensed broker does that.
- — Make a compliance determination. AI output requires your review and sign-off.
- — Replace your professional judgement or your licence.
