As published by Portbase, the Port Community System for Rotterdam and Amsterdam, more than 7,000 organisations work through its platform, using services such as Cargo Declaration Import for customs declarations, Vessel Notification and a Vessel Visit API for vessel-call notices, and a Discharge List service for container manifests. In April 2025, Portbase became the first Port Community System to make the DCSA Track & Trace standard ready for use (as published — confirm current requirements with your adviser).
LATYNEX Digital builds logistics software around the shipment or vessel-call record your team maintains for these services. This page covers it for Rotterdam businesses. The general service is at Logistics Software Development, and the market overview is at LATYNEX Digital for businesses in Rotterdam. Delivery is in English, and this page names no client.
Typical industries
- Road carriers and container transport operators
- Freight forwarders and customs-side logistics teams
- Importers and exporters moving cargo through Rotterdam
- Shipping agents handling vessel-call notifications
- Depots and terminal-facing logistics back offices
Common lead-handling problems
- The same shipment data re-entered into separate declaration, manifest and notification screens
- Vessel-call details tracked in a spreadsheet before being keyed in
- A missing field found only when a declaration is rejected
- No single record linking a shipment to its declarations and notifications
- Discrepancy reports between declared and discharged cargo read by one person
Direct answer
If your Rotterdam business submits cargo or vessel data through Portbase, LATYNEX can build an internal tool that holds one shipment or vessel-call record, structured to the fields Portbase's declaration, manifest and notification services ask for, with a check for commonly missing fields before your team submits through Portbase itself.
Why the global page and the Rotterdam hub are not enough
The global Logistics Software Development page has no port-community system to design around, and Rotterdam has no city hub of its own to draw on beyond broad discovery. This page is separate from LATYNEX's Amsterdam deep-GEO page, which covers a cocoa-lot workflow, not Portbase declarations; the two markets and hooks do not overlap.
What we configure and build
The tool sits alongside Portbase's own services, not in place of them.
- A shipment or vessel-call record holding the fields your team currently re-types across services
- Field checks against the published requirements you confirm for the services you actually use
- A discrepancy view between what was declared and what a discharge report later confirms
- A history of submissions per shipment or vessel call, with an owner
- A written handover once the workflow is running
What stays with you and Portbase
Submitting declarations, manifests and notifications through Portbase itself stays with your team's own Portbase account and authorised users. Whether a submission meets customs or port requirements is for you and your adviser; we structure the data your team enters, we do not submit on your behalf.
What needs API support or custom scope
LATYNEX claims no Portbase integration or account. Any connection to Portbase's own APIs, such as its Vessel Visit API, or to your TMS or accounting system, is scoped per project through the documented API if access is permitted, after technical review.
What we do not do, and where LATYNEX is not the right fit
LATYNEX does not give customs or legal advice, does not submit declarations on your behalf, does not say a submission is compliant, and holds no Portbase, customs or port-authority accreditation. It has no Rotterdam office or named clients, and delivery is in English only. If you already run a TMS with a working Portbase connection, this page is not for you.
How delivery actually works
LATYNEX Digital has no office in Rotterdam and does not claim one. We work with Rotterdam businesses remotely, over video calls and written updates, in English, with the same team and process as in every other market.
Questions
Do you have an office in Rotterdam?+
No. We work with businesses in Rotterdam remotely, over video calls and written updates, in English, and we do not imply a local presence.
Do you submit declarations to Portbase for us?+
No. Submission stays with your team's own Portbase account and authorised users. We build the record that holds the data before it is submitted.
Does this connect to Portbase's API directly?+
No integration is claimed. Any connection to Portbase's own APIs is scoped per project through the documented API if access is permitted, after technical review.
Does this cover the Amsterdam page too?+
No. LATYNEX's Amsterdam deep-GEO page covers a separate cocoa-lot workflow. This page is specific to Rotterdam and Portbase's declaration, manifest and vessel-notification services.
Does this make our submissions compliant?+
No. We give no customs or legal advice and cannot say a submission will be accepted. Confirm current requirements with your adviser; we build the fields they specify.
How are you invoiced, and in what currency?+
In EUR, by Latynex Trade OÜ, a company registered in Estonia (EU). Tax treatment for a client in the Netherlands is confirmed on the quote, and we do not give tax advice.
