MAGAYA Corporation, a freight management platform for logistics service providers, has announced the launch of Magaya Global Customs Compliance for New Zealand, expanding both its New Zealand offering and its growing portfolio of country-specific customs compliance solutions.

The new cloud-based application aims to help customs brokers, freight forwarders, and importers accelerate trade single window (TSW) submissions and stay current with New Zealand customs requirements.

Described as “purpose-built” for New Zealand, the solution reduces manual data entry and connects with Magaya Supply Chain and the Magaya Digital Freight Portal.

Shipment information, customs statuses, and customer notifications flow automatically between systems, creating a more complete platform for international forwarding and customs compliance.

Key capabilities include:

  • Electronic filing of inward cargo reports (ICR), outward cargo reports (OCR), cargo report exports (CRE), and import, export, and excise declarations.

  • Automated transfer of master and house bill information from Magaya Supply Chain for validation.

  • Automatic customs status updates that keep operations teams and customers informed throughout the clearance process.

  • Regular regulatory and tariff updates provided by Magaya's dedicated compliance team at no additional cost.

  • A modern, web-based interface designed to simplify customs operations and reduce manual work.

“Magaya already supports freight forwarders across New Zealand with the technology they use to manage their day-to-day operations,” said Gary Nemmers, Magaya chief executive.

“Adding native customs compliance builds on that foundation and gives logistics service providers a more complete, connected platform for managing international freight and customs processes.”

Magaya is to showcase this solution at the CBAFF 2026 Conference, taking place September 22-24 in Christchurch.

Attendees can visit the Magaya team to see the solution in action, learn how it simplifies New Zealand customs filings, and discuss how it fits into broader freight forwarding and customs operations.
