IATA – Recommendation on electronic standards IATA recommends the use of electronic standards to reduce the cost of managing diversity in systems integration IATA publishes electronic standards: Cargo Interchange Message Procedures, i.e. CIMP focused on communications with airlines regarding transportation XML focused on communications of trade information mainly for Customs purposes IATA recommends the use of WCO electronic standards for Customs interface WCO is developing XML equivalents of their existing EDIFACT standards IATA Cargo Business Process 4 © International Air Transport Association 2009

IATA – Strategy for new XML standards The industry bodies (CBPP & CPCMG & CDITF) reviewed and endorsed the IATA position paper on XML and agreed that: Where no standards existed to meet the industry requirements, IATA and supply chain stakeholders created task forces to develop XML standards (e.g. Invoice, Packing List) For existing CIMP messages that should have an XML equivalent, IATA and supply chain stakeholders created this task force to develop XML standards The Cargo Committee endorsed “ambitious” target dates to develop the following messages in XML House Waybill June 09 Air Waybill August 09 Shipper’s Letter of Instruction October 09 House Manifest December 09 IATA Cargo Business Process 5 © International Air Transport Association 2009
