Export documents linked to the correct terminal
The service covers export document registration in Portbase for Rotterdam. We check the terminal, document type and link to the container or transport unit. Registration supplies data for port handling; it does not replace the customs declaration or every transport formality.
What information to prepare
The terminal determines the service scope, so include it in your first message.
- The terminal name in Rotterdam.
- MRN and export document, container numbers or transport unit identification.
- Booking, carrier or shipping line.
- Any earlier registration or error message if the case is already in progress.
- IMO/DG document for dangerous goods.
Registration confirmation and available statuses
You receive confirmation of the registration or details of an issue that needs clarification. Monitoring covers available responses and statuses within the agreed service; we set the period and notification method in the order terms. Acceptance of documents in Portbase does not confirm physical export or automatically provide CC599C.
Changes to the terminal, document or container
Send the updated details and identify the earlier registration. We check whether an amendment, withdrawal or new registration is needed. A booking change alone may not describe the full shipment change, so include the port, terminal and current allocation of documents.
Portbase quote and possible timing
Pricing depends on document and unit counts, the terminal, monitoring, changes and monthly volume. We confirm timing after checking the data and availability of the required service for the terminal. We also check the port deadlines for your shipment.

Before you send a request
Are Portbase registration and export customs clearance the same service?
No. Portbase registration supplies document data for port handling. The customs declaration is a separate step, and we need the relevant documents for registration.
Do you cover every terminal in Rotterdam?
Send the terminal name and transport details. We will use these to confirm registration availability, service scope and terms for your request.
Can I order without knowing how to use Portbase?
Yes. Send the documents, port, terminal and transport details. We will check the details and handle registration. You do not need to operate the system yourself.
