BETTERluck Shipping: Senegal BESC/ECTN - Essential Guide

Dear Exporters & Importers,
When shipping to Senegal, compliance with the Advanced Cargo Information (ACI) Service is mandatory, requiring an Electronic Cargo Tracking Note (ECTN), also known as BESC (Bordereau Électronique de Suivi des Cargaisons). BETTERluck Shipping, your trusted freight forwarder since 2007, provides all essential details to help you obtain Senegal’s BESC/ECTN efficiently, including document requirements, fees, processing times, and critical deadlines.

Senegal BESC/ECTN: Key FAQs Answered

1. What Documents Are Required for Senegal BESC/ECTN?

To process your BESC/ECTN application, we need the following documents:

  • Commercial Invoice: A detailed invoice with product descriptions, quantities, values, and contact information of both the shipper and consignee.

  • Packing List: An itemized list specifying cargo weight, dimensions, and packaging details.

  • Bill of Lading (BOL) or Air Waybill (AWB): A copy of the original shipping document, including vessel/flight details, ports of loading and discharge (Dakar Port is Senegal’s primary seaport; Blaise Diagne International Airport handles air cargo), and consignee information.

  • Shipper and Consignee Details: Full legal names, addresses, and contact details for both parties.

  • Export License (if applicable): Required for regulated products such as electronics, pharmaceuticals, or food items.

All documents must be accurate and complete to avoid processing delays.

2. What Is the Cost of Senegal BESC/ECTN?

  • Cargo Value: Fees are calculated according to the declared value of your shipment.

3. How Long Does Processing Take?

Once all required documents are received, processing typically takes 24–48 business hours. Delays may occur if documents contain errors or missing information, so we recommend submitting verified, complete files to ensure efficiency.

4. When Should I Apply for Senegal BESC/ECTN?

You must apply for BESC/ECTN before your shipment departs the port of origin. This ensures the document is valid upon arrival in Senegal, preventing customs clearance delays.
Important Note: Applications submitted after the vessel or flight departs may result in late fees (滞纳金). To avoid penalties, initiate the process as soon as your BOL or AWB is confirmed.

5. Are There Late Fees for Delayed Applications?

Yes, Senegal’s customs authority imposes late fees for BESC/ECTN applications submitted after the shipment has departed. The fee amount increases with the duration of the delay, making timely submission critical to avoid unnecessary costs.
