Ensure Security and Compliance for UAE Imports with Trade Tech’s Expert MPCI Filing

The UAE is introducing updated cargo security regulations through the Maritime Pre-Load Cargo Information (MPCI) Program, administered by the National Advance Information Center (NAIC), part of the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs, and Ports Security (ICP). Starting in October 2026, regulations will require the mandatory electronic submission of containerized cargo information at least 24 hours before the vessel’s loading commences from the last foreign port before entering the UAE.

Trade Tech offers a streamlined, compliant, and effective filing process, empowering freight forwarders and carriers to meet these regulatory obligations while significantly reducing their operational burden.

Who is Required to File Under the UAE MPCI Program?

The MPCI Program applies to all containerized ocean freight heading to UAE ports, including imports, transshipment, cargo in transit, and Freight Remaining on Board (FROB).

The parties responsible for filing include:

  • Shipping lines: They must submit the details of the Carrier’s Bill of Lading.
  • Freight forwarders and NVOCCs: They are responsible for submitting the House Bill of Lading.
  • Master Vessel Operators, Freight Forwarders, Master Loaders, and Co-Loaders: Each must submit their necessary Bill of Lading information.
  • Forwarders: They are obligated to clearly identify the actual shipper and the final consignee.
UAE MPCI FAQs

Key Requirements for MPCI Filing

Total Control of Compliance Services | Cargo Filing
To comply with NAIC MPCI mandates, the following data must be submitted electronically before the vessel sails:

  • Bill of Lading information: Including the bill number, date of issue, and the ports of loading and unloading.
  • Container and seal identification numbers.
  • A detailed description of the goods along with their corresponding HS codes.
  • Information about all involved parties: This includes the shipper, consignee, notify party, freight forwarders, and agents.
  • Details about the vessel and its voyage.

Filings that do not adhere to these requirements may be issued a "Do Not Load" status, preventing the shipment from being loaded.
