TRADE FEEDBACK -2004
• Comments received from ICC, IATA, FIATA, TIACA, SITPRO, SWEPRO, IFPI, JIG, EAN and UPU
• Roles and responsibilities of the various parties along the trade chain
• UCR should be optional at manifest level; • Carrier/ forwarder should not be responsible for
assigning or reporting the UCR
