Modern customs API for Ground Handling Agents

Belli rebuilt customs API from first principles for ground handling agents — not as a bolt-on to a legacy core. Customs compliance is increasingly complex. Belli provides direct API integration with customs authorities in 50+ countries.

Belli's customs API targets a measurable outcome — 50+ countries automated — and goes live in 10 days, not 12–18 months.

The operational reality for Ground Handling Agents

The friction is specific, not generic.

  • Manual warehouse slotting and inbound/outbound tracking
  • Compliance gaps with varying airline SLAs
  • Scanner and IoT device integration nightmares

What changes with Belli

The same operation, re-platformed:

  • Automated ULD acceptance, build-up, and handover
  • SLA compliance tracking and automated reporting
  • Single platform serving all airline customers

Before Belli: Manual customs filing creates delays and compliance risks. Each country managed separately. After Belli: Automated filing across 50+ countries from a single system. Zero PLACI compliance failures.

How Belli's Customs API works

The mechanics are built for throughput, not paperwork.

In practice, that means pre-arrival cargo information filing (PLACI), canada PACT and UK PreDICT support, and UAE NAIC direct filing. Belli also covers US ACAS/ACMS integration. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Going live in 10 days

Replatforming usually means a year of risk; with Belli it is a ten-day project plan. Your existing integrations are reconnected, not rebuilt from scratch. By go-live your operators are trained on the same workflows they already run. A named engineer stays attached after launch — reachable 24/7, not via a portal.

The bottom line for Ground Handling Agents

Here is the case in plain terms. Doing nothing has a price, and it compounds every flight. 50+ countries automated is the outcome Belli is engineered to deliver. Modern carriers already operate at this standard. The next step is a working demo, not a six-week sales cycle.
