eLink
eLink is Cargonaut’s tool for advance digital notification of export shipments. It ensures faster freight handling, fully secure delivery and fewer returns. Compliance rules for delivering export shipments at Schiphol, including Ready For Carriage conditions, are incorporated in the tool.
A shipment’s Ready for Take-In status enables users to see whether it complies with the latest regulations: green indicates that all requirements have been met, while red indicates that this is not yet the case.
All deliveries made by freight forwarders or their carriers should be announced in advance in eLink, along with an overview of the shipments to be collected.

What benefits does eLink offer me?
- You save time by skipping a number of steps in the reception process or by completing them more quickly. This means faster handling of your shipments.
- You are assured of fully secure delivery in accordance with the latest protocols agreed within the community.
- All information is pre-checked, meaning you benefit from higher data quality and a reduced incidence of returns and corrections.

Expediteurs hoeven niet meer apart langs de verschillende afhandelaars, maar registreren eenvoudig de stationsverklaringen online. Hiermee worden bijvoorbeeld ook dubbele stationsverklaringen sneller geïdentificeerd en worden voorkomen.
