Opportunities from The Single Window
Single Window benefits

dangerous or prohibited shipments
Automated PGA interactions reduce paper and enable near-real time decision
making by Government authorities
Makes it easier for industry to comply with government regulations
Reduced costs for Government and industry
Three enablers provide the means for PGA participation in ACE:

to be collected electronically from industry by CBP on behalf of PGAs

PGAs

documents needed during the cargo import and export processes
