UPS launches new technology for Latin America
UPS has launched two new Web-based trade management tools that will make it easier for customers in Latin America to better manage the customs clearance process and simplify the monitoring of package movements worldwide.
The new tools are Quantum View SM Manage and UPS TradeAbility.
UPS said Quantum ViewSM Manage is available in 22 countries, including Mexico and Brazil. It is a package visibility service that offers users total visibility of imports and exports, allowing them to clear shipments into the country, audit cleared shipments for correct classification and electronically archive shipment data.
UPS TradeAbility helps international shippers quickly and easily identify specific country tariff codes to calculate duties necessary for customs clearance, generate cost estimates for duties, taxes and transportation, and locate compliance information for 34 countries.
