Most brokers, forwarders and traders spend far more on customs declarations than they realise — in agent fees and in staff time re-keying data. Enter your numbers below for an instant estimate of what tradePhlo could save you each year.
We’ll run these numbers against your real shipment data on a 30-minute call and show you exactly where the time and cost go — and what tradePhlo removes.
The fee you pay a broker — or the cost of an in-house clerk — is only part of the picture. The bigger hidden cost is time: pulling data off commercial invoices and packing lists, re-keying it into a customs system, and checking it before it goes to HMRC or Dutch customs. At 50 declarations a month and 25 minutes each, that’s over 250 hours a year on data entry alone.
tradePhlo’s AI reads the documents and pre-fills the declaration, so your team reviews and submits in minutes rather than typing from scratch — and the same data flows straight into UK CDS, NCTS6 transit and NL DMS without a second system.
No — it’s an indicative estimate to show the order of magnitude. Your actual saving depends on your declaration mix, document quality and current process. A short demo on your own data gives you a firm number.
It compares the minutes you enter (your manual time today) against roughly four minutes per declaration with tradePhlo’s AI extraction — the time to review and submit a pre-filled declaration rather than key it from scratch.
Many customers bring customs in-house with tradePhlo; brokers and forwarders use it to handle far more volume with the same team. Either way the goal is the same — less manual work, lower cost per declaration.
