The cost of getting it wrong
Every transit carries financial and operational risk when filings are managed manually.
Port delays
Miss a 96-hour window and demurrage starts ticking — up to $25K per day until the next available slot.
Compliance errors
Each authority has its own ruleset. Manually cross-checking ISPS, Montreux, and SAMSA requirements risks fines up to $500K.
Agent overhead
Ship-agent paperwork runs $2K–$5K per transit — a six-figure line item for fleets with 50+ transits a year.
How CanalClear works
From upload to filed in three steps — with a compliance check at every stage.
Upload
Drop your vessel particulars and cargo docs — one intake covers all 7 waterways.
Validate
AI checks every field against canal authority rules. Get a compliance score before you submit.
File
Approved filings route directly to the authority portal — no re-entry, no guesswork.
"We used to assign two people to each transit just to track paperwork. CanalClear cut that to a single review. The compliance validation alone saved us three re-filings in the first month."
