Demurrage is the cost nobody plans for

Your container lands. The clearing documents aren't ready. The free days run out. Suddenly you're paying the shipping line for every day it sits at the port — charges that dwarf a year of software. And it almost always happens for one reason: nobody saw the deadline coming, because it was buried in a spreadsheet or a WhatsApp thread. This module exists to make that impossible.

WHAT'S INSIDE

Everything a UAE trader needs

AI Bill of Lading reader
Upload a B/L as PDF or photo — AI extracts 15 fields in seconds: B/L number, vessel, voyage, ports, shipper, consignee, containers, cargo, weights, even hazmat codes. No retyping, no transcription errors carried into your books.
⏱️
Demurrage deadline alerts
Every shipment’s free-time deadline is tracked automatically. The moment one is at risk, your team gets an email — "this container needs clearing today" — before the charges start. This is the feature no other UAE accounting tool offers importers.

Import/Export module — FAQ

What is demurrage and how does this help?
Demurrage is the penalty a shipping line charges when your container sits at the port beyond its free days. It usually happens because a deadline was missed. The module tracks every shipment’s free-time deadline and emails your team before charges begin — so you act in time.
How does the AI Bill of Lading reader work?
Upload your B/L as a PDF or a photo. The AI reads it and auto-fills 15 shipment fields — B/L number, vessel, ports, parties, containers, cargo, weights and more. You review and save. It even handles hazmat cargo with UN numbers and IMDG classes.
Is the basic trade invoice template part of this module?
No — the Trade/CIF invoice template is already included in your Starter plan and above. This module adds the full import/export toolkit on top: shipment tracking, the AI B/L reader, landed cost, and demurrage deadline alerts.
How much does it cost?
It’s free for your first 3 months, then AED 25/month, added on top of your base Deskloc Flow plan. You can switch it off anytime — your base plan is unaffected.
Who is this built for?
UAE importers and exporters — trading companies, distributors, and anyone moving goods by sea who deals with Bills of Lading, free-time deadlines, and demurrage exposure.
