Customs Declaration Preparation
Nunar reads invoices, packing lists, and bills of lading — extracts every field a Dubai Trade declaration needs, validates HS codes against UAE requirements, and hands teams submission-ready data instead of raw documents.
A single customs declaration requires data from multiple documents that were never designed to match each other.
Commercial invoices arrive in different templates from different suppliers. Packing lists use varying units of measure. Bills of lading from different carriers format port codes differently. Certificates of origin use inconsistent country naming conventions.
Before any field is entered into Dubai Trade Portal, a declarant must:
This is not data entry. This is document intelligence work — and it happens for every single declaration.
When a customs broker handles 30–100 declarations per day, extraction time compounds:
The core problem:
Declaration errors are not caught at entry. They are caught at submission — after preparation time has already been spent. The damage is in both the rework and the delay.
Nunar processes PDFs, scanned documents, images, DOC, and XLS files. For each shipment document set, it extracts and structures the fields required for Dubai Trade Portal submission:

HS code errors are the most common cause of Dubai Trade declaration rejections and amendment fines. UAE Customs requires the full 12-digit commodity code — not the 6-digit international standard most suppliers print on invoices.
Manual HS classification involves:
Nunar validates extracted commodity descriptions against the UAE 12-digit tariff, flags codes that require human classification review, and highlights mismatches between the supplier's stated HS code and the UAE-specific code — before the declaration is submitted.
Why this matters:
A wrong HS code is not just a portal rejection. It is a compliance risk — and under UAE rules, every amended declaration line carries an AED 500 fine. At 30–50 declarations per day, HS validation accuracy directly affects the operation's cost base.
Nunar maintains a complete record linking each declaration field to its source:
This traceability supports trade finance documentation, regulatory audits, and internal compliance reviews — without additional manual record-keeping.
Instead of starting with a document pack and blank portal fields, declarants receive:
