As for grain ships (wheat, corn, soybean, etc.) all bills of lading shall be a single company as NOTIFY Party and a CONSIGNEE: TO ORDER. After the arrival of the ship, invoices are being issued by the supplier with the names of other unincluded companies as NOTIFY Party. The question please is how the ACI system is being implemented, knowing that the consignees (importers) do not specify their names until the arrival of the ship?

1223- In the case of importing strategic commodities for the State and they are included as "bulk cargo" such as wheat, corn, etc. then it shall be carried out by the General Authority for Supply Commodities (GASC) and by some other companies under contract with the Ministry of Supply. In this case, importing shall be conducted via public tenders under the unified procurement laws and the procurements specific laws, and all shipment parties, who must be included in the shipment documents and bills of lading in accordance with the procedures provided within the ACI system before being shipped from abroad, shall be accurately known.
- As for the messages received from some traders saying that they have been sold at sea before arrival, then we believe that these importers must clarify the name and identification number of Egyptian importer and within the shipment documents and bills of lading, in accordance with the provisions of the pre-registration system of shipments ACI. These companies may, however as a means of facilitating their work, be able to allow the transfer of ownership and post-arrival assignments. This is in accordance with the provisions of Article 26 of the Customs Law No. 207 of 2020 after warehousing and allow the transfer of ownership from inside warehouses, as well as retail operations included within the depository in accordance with the procedures described in the executive regulations of the Customs Law.
