International transport: currency, language and border, built for UK businesses

UK teams often run English first with Turkish or other languages for customers and staff, so screens and messages are set up for that from day one. For a UK-based firm, a large part of transport is cross-border. The system links different currencies, documents in different languages and border-crossing records to the shipment; customs declarations and permits are prepared by a specialist.

  • English and community languages
  • Bacs and GBP
  • Roles and audit log

Currency and documents

Price and invoice are held in GBP, EUR or another currency, with an exchange-rate record. Shipping documents are prepared in DE, FR, IT or EN according to the language of consignee and sender.

Other languages are stated separately in the quote.

Border and specialist documents

The driver or operator records the border-crossing time; it appears in the shipment history. Customs declarations, permits and similar documents are prepared by a specialist; the software only adds the document, date and status to the record.

The software does not perform customs procedures and gives no compliance guarantee.

UK-specific points

Since the UK is not an EU member, customs procedures are common at border crossings. These procedures and the related rules are carried out by the company's customs specialist; the system only stores document, date and status with the shipment.

Frequently asked questions

Are customs declarations prepared?

No; a customs specialist prepares them, the software adds the document and status to the record.

Is the exchange rate updated automatically?

The rate can be entered manually; an automatic rate source is assessed separately.
