Celebi Delhi Cargo launches new e-CSD facility at Delhi Airport

Another milestone for Digitalisation in India! Celebi Delhi Cargo Terminal Management India has launched new e-CSD (Electronic Cargo Security Declaration) at Delhi IGI Airport, which will help the freight forwarders in saving considerable time, resources and cost for all of us without impacting the efficiency and efficacy of the system.

Existing CSD process involves following steps:

  • Filing of CSD;
  • Printing of CSD;
  • Transporting  physical print outs to Export Warehouse;
  • Presenting the CSD Document at the designated X-Ray machine; and
  • Ensuring the presence of CSD document till the completion of screening process.

New e-CSD facility:

  • Filing of CSD; and
  • Scan and upload CSD on the ACMES portal during AWB execution.

The scanned copy of CSD document once uploaded on ACMES, will be transmitted to Celebi for document acceptance through EDI which is in line with Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) addendum to AVSEC order no. 06/2005, wherein CSD can be digitally accepted and processed.

Advantages of e-CSD over manual process:

  • Increased efficiency by saving time and faster document accessibility;
  • Going paperless will reduce carbon footprint;
  • Improved Information Security via safer document archival and retrieval; and
  • Reduced physical interface/contact

To further understand this facility, please refer to the following FAQs:
