Extract Data from Customs Declarations Automatically

Upload a customs declaration form and get importer, exporter, HS codes, declared values, and duty payable extracted as structured data instantly.

Used by customs brokers, freight forwarders, and trade compliance teams worldwide.

Stop manually transcribing customs declaration data

Re-entering importer details, HS codes, and declared values from customs forms into your trade compliance system is slow and risks costly compliance errors.

❌ Before ParserBee

  • Read through each customs declaration to find HS codes and declared values
  • Re-type commodity descriptions and duty amounts into your compliance system
  • Risk transcription errors on critical tariff codes
  • Process declarations from multiple countries individually
  • No structured audit trail of past declarations

✅ After ParserBee

  • Upload customs declarations via browser or API
  • Extract importer, goods, HS codes, and duty payable automatically
  • Get consistent structured data for every declaration
  • Feed data into your trade compliance platform directly
  • Build an auditable record of all customs filings
