The Three in One - C.C.I.D, C.A.N & Pre - Receival Advice (PRA) Application Form

The first step in exporting full containers out of Australia is to get an Australian Customs C.C.I.D number also known as Australia Customs Export Owners Code

If you have an A.B.N (Australian Business Number) that’s great we can link it with Australian Customs so it performs two roles: One with the ATO (Australian Tax Office) and the other with Australian Customs Client Identification as the C.C.I.D.

With your new found C.C.I.D we then proceed to the all new electronic export customs clearance system and obtain your C.A.N (Customs Authority Number) which is your export clearance.

Once the C.A.N comes through we then jump onto the electronic pre-receival system and gain access onto the nominated wharf before the transport company leaves the exporters and or suppliers premises thereby reducing transport demurrage (waiting time) at the Australian wharf.

This whole process will take 48 to 72 hours, longer if weekend or public holidays thrown in.
