Nafeza / ACID — Egypt's advance cargo declaration system, explained for Uzbek buyers.
Why this page exists
Uzbek buyers and their freight forwarders need to understand Egypt's mandatory ACID (Advance Cargo Information Declaration) flow to avoid documentation rejection at port of loading.
Required sections
- What Nafeza is — Egypt's customs single-window platform administered by the Customs Authority / Ministry of Finance.
- ACID workflow — Egyptian exporter obtains ACID number ≥ 48 h before vessel arrival at Egyptian port; ACID appears on BL / AWB.
- Documents linked — commercial invoice, packing list, BL, phyto, CoO.
- Role of Uzbek buyer — correspond on importer data to Egyptian exporter; no direct Nafeza interaction needed for Uzbek side.
- Common failure modes — missing ACID on BL, wrong HS code, mismatched port of discharge.
Required FAQs
- Q: Who is responsible for the ACID number? A: The Egyptian exporter's logistics team submits ACID through the Nafeza single-window system. The Uzbek buyer provides importer data to feed the declaration.
