OUR PROCESS

Five steps. Zero surprises.

From your request to a blockchain-sealed report, this is how we verify your cargo at origin.

  1. 01

    Quote within 24 hours

    Tell us what you need. We respond with scope and cost in less than one business day.

  2. 02

    Coordination with origin

    We schedule the visit directly with your supplier or forwarder. No middlemen, no broken telephone.

  3. 03

    On-site physical inspection

    Our certified inspector verifies the container before sealing. Photos, video and actual count.

  4. 04

    Validation against documents

    We cross-check the packing list, invoice and BL against what we found. If something doesn't match, we alert you before sailing.

  5. 05

    Blockchain report

    You receive the full report in the Efficax System, with an immutable timestamp and ready for audit.
