DIGITAL PORTAL

Your customs, in one view.

Gaston Schul's Digital Portal is the customer-facing platform for everything we handle for you. It gives you up-to-date declaration status across every market, a place to upload documents and download your customs paperwork, a searchable archive of everything filed, and alerts whenever there is an exception or an action for you. It is the visibility layer on top of the customs we run, so you always know what is happening without having to ask.

WHAT IT DOES

Everything you need to see and run your customs.


Declaration status across markets

Up-to-date status for every declaration, in every country we handle for you, in one view. No separate system or contact per market.

Upload in any format

Drag and drop documents in CSV, XML, PDF or Excel, or send them by email. The portal takes the data however it comes.

Download your customs documents

Import and export declarations, transit documents, release confirmations and proof of export, ready to download whenever you need them.

Searchable document archive

Every declaration and supporting document stored and searchable, so the proof is always there when an audit or a customer asks.

Alerts and notifications

Email and in-portal alerts for status changes, exceptions, missing data, compliance flags and anything that needs your action, so nothing waits on a phone call. You do not have to live in another screen; the portal pushes the problem to you, only when you are genuinely needed.

Full data export

CSV and raw data export. Your customs data is yours, with no lock-in.

Data feed for logistics providers

If you are an LSP, customs data and status can feed straight into your own systems, giving you the immediate answers you need for your own client reporting and customer service.

WHY IT HELPS

Stop chasing your customs. Start
seeing it.

A digital portal sounds like a small thing until you add up the hours a customs team loses to not having one.

  1. The status is just there. In our experience, most of the time a team spends asking "where is this declaration?" disappears the moment the status is simply visible to look at. No emails, no phone calls, no waiting for someone to come back to you.
  2. Exceptions find you, not the other way round. Missing data, a compliance flag, an action required: the portal pushes it to you, so problems surface while there is still time to fix them, instead of at the border.
  3. The proof is always to hand. Every document, filed and searchable in one archive. When an auditor, a customer or your own finance team needs a declaration or a proof of export, it is a search, not a scramble.
  4. Your data stays yours. Export it in CSV or raw form, to feed your own reporting. The portal gives you visibility without locking your data in.

Digital Portal FAQs

Gaston Schul's Digital Portal: frequently asked questions

gs-collage-faq.png
What is Gaston Schul's Digital Portal?

It is the customer-facing platform for the customs we handle for you. It gives you up-to-date declaration status across every market, lets you upload documents and download your customs paperwork, keeps a searchable archive of everything filed, and alerts you to exceptions and actions. In short, it is one place to see and manage your customs, without phoning anyone.

Should we use the portal, or connect by API or EDI?

Often both. API and EDI automate high-volume data exchange system to system, so declarations flow without rekeying. The portal is the human view on top: status, documents, archive and exceptions for your team to see and act on. Many customers automate the bulk by API or EDI and use the portal for visibility and handling exceptions. We help you set the right balance when you onboard.


What can we download from the portal?

Your customs documents: import and export declarations, transit documents, release confirmations and proof of export, plus the supporting documents you submitted. Everything is stored in a searchable archive, so past declarations are easy to find when you need them.

Do I need a customs broker for transit?

Not legally, but in practice almost everyone uses one. Opening a movement means access to NCTS, a transit guarantee, and the authorisations to act at the office of departure. A broker removes that overhead and the risk of a movement being held or never discharged. That is exactly what we do, across Europe.

Is our data secure, and can we get it out?

Yes to both. We handle data with encryption and security protocols to ISO 27000 standards, and your customs data is yours: full CSV and raw exports are available, with no lock-in, so you can feed your own reporting whenever you want. We are independent and privately owned, with no parent company over us and no outside shareholders, so your data stays yours.
