46. IDB SeminarSimplifying the Business  INTERNATIONAL AIR TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION 2005 IATA e-freight: is a priority for the industry  As part of Simplifying the Business, IATA’s Board of Governors have mandated a Global Cargo Paperless Environment project designed to remove all the paper for all stakeholders from air cargo transportation by 2010,  with a "fast-track" programme to accommodate those parties who are able to free their supply chain processes from paper by 2007. This project is now called IATA e-freight.  The project has the full support from the industry:

47. IDB SeminarSimplifying the Business  INTERNATIONAL AIR TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION 2005 IATA e-freight: objectives  Eliminate the need to produce and transport paper documents for air cargo shipments by moving to an industry-wide, simpler, electronic, paper-free environment  IATA has formed an Industry Action Group (IAG) representing air cargo stakeholders made up of Airlines (AIR incl. BA, LH, CV, FX, SQ, EK + AC, KL, IB), World Customs Organization (WCO) and Freight Forward International (FFI incl. major Freight Forwarders)  The process is complex with more then 15’000 stakeholders including: » 270 carriers » 200 national customs bodies » More then 10 000 freight forwarders » At least 20 large industry bodies
