Project Purpose

Text Area

idproject_purpose
A multimodal corridor in international trade comprises three base elements relating to cargo moving from place A to B: (1) change of mode of transport; (2) crossing international borders; (3) change of international modal convention (e.g. CIM to SGMS). This project will concentrate on the related regulatory aspects.

Movement of cargo through International (air/ocean/land) borders is delayed due to lengthy and complex regulatory clearances. In reality, several research projects have shown large amount of data reusability between origin and destination e.g. customs declarations, carrier manifests etc. If re-usability of data is established and information on cargo status is exchanged between origin and destination then it removes non-tariff barriers to trade between countries and their respective land/sea ports and airports.

Several countries, land/sea ports and airports are exploring the possibility of establishing such data and logistics corridors but do not find any standard guidance material on the same.

The purpose of this project is to create regulatory-related guidance material on multimodal corridor set ups and further build on the existing data pipeline model to create Linkage and establish appropriate standards for exchange of information between ports and airports of two countries. 
 

Project Scope

The projects will build on the existing data pipeline model and the future CBM-RDM model to create a white paper and guidance material for exchange of data through multimodal digital corridors.

The scope of the project focuses on the regulatory aspects, including:

  • Study of the need of multimodal digital corridors for air/sea/land modes of transport with focus on regulatory authorities
  • Study of reusability of information between origin and destination stakeholders
  • Study of existing similar initiatives
  • Study the potential of integrating with Single Window facilities
  • Study of other factors that delay cargo processing at air/sea/land borders that could be addressed through multimodal corridors
  • Consider the common data elements with respect to the CBM-RDM
  • Identify the regulatory aspects of key steps in setting up the air/sea/land multimodal corridors
  • Study the possible regulatory challenges in setting up of multimodal digital corridors
  • Identify technologies that can facilitate the creation of regulatory-related multimodal digital corridors
