With aduanasHQ + ASYCUDA World

How it actually works

  • Step 1: Enter data once in aduanasHQ
  • Step 2: P4 validates BIR Number and ASYCUDA rules (before transmission)
  • Step 3: Click "Submit" → Automatic transmission to ASYCUDA World
  • Step 4: ASYCUDA World responds in 15-45 seconds (accepted/rejected)
  • Step 5: P4 displays real-time status updates

Manual Process (ASYCUDA Portal)

What you're doing now
