Entry, movement, exit
A transit movement is not complete when it crosses into the country. It is complete when the cargo exits and the movement is acquitted. Each stage depends on accurate documents and clear communication between the transporter, the agent and the cargo owner.
Where problems start
Incomplete transport documents, unexpected route changes, and unclear responsibility for acquittal are common sources of delay. Naming one point of coordination from the start reduces them.
Treat transit as a process with a defined end, not a single border crossing.
