About Document Checklist by Country & Product

Document Checklist by Country & Product builds a trackable, editable checklist for a shipment based on the destination country, product category, transport mode, Incoterms rule, and payment method. Each item gets an owner, due date, and status so you can manage it through to completion.

Country-specific flags highlight commonly known requirements as a starting point — always confirm the exact, current requirement list with the destination customs authority or your broker.

Features

  • Combined rule engine: Destination country, product category, transport mode, Incoterms rule, and payment method all contribute to the suggested checklist.
  • Country-specific flags: Highlights well-known requirements for common destinations.
  • Full tracking: Owner, due date, and status (Not started / In progress / Complete / Not applicable) per item.
  • Live readiness score: See shipment document completeness at a glance.
  • Editable and extensible: Rename, remove, or add rows freely.
  • Printable checklist: Clean summary for your compliance file.

How to Use

  1. Enter the shipment reference and choose the destination country.
  2. Select the product category, transport mode, Incoterms rule, and payment method.
  3. Review the auto-generated checklist and adjust owners, due dates, and statuses.
  4. Track the readiness score as documents are completed.
  5. Print or export the checklist for your records.

Examples

Example: A food shipment to the United States by sea under CIF, paid by letter of credit, auto-adds an FDA Prior Notice flag, a health certificate, an insurance certificate, and a bill of exchange/LC checklist item alongside the standard commercial invoice, packing list, and bill of lading.

Benefits

  • One shared checklist covering both regulatory and shipment logistics documents.
  • Clear ownership and deadlines instead of a static list.
  • Faster, more consistent shipment document preparation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from the document requirement wizard?
The wizard gives you a quick recommended list to browse. This tool builds an editable, trackable checklist — with an owner, due date, and status for every item — so you can manage the shipment through to completion, not just see what is likely required.
How specific are the country flags?
They highlight well-known country-level requirements (for example FDA prior notice for food entering the United States, or CE marking for electronics entering the EU) as a starting point. Destination requirements change and vary by exact product, so confirm specifics with the destination customs authority or your broker.
Can I track multiple shipments with this?
Yes, informally — export a checklist as JSON for each shipment and re-import the values by regenerating rows, or simply keep separate printed/exported checklists per shipment reference.
What does the readiness score measure?
The percentage of applicable checklist items marked Obtained/Complete, giving you a quick view of how close the shipment is to being fully documented.
Can I edit or remove auto-added items?
Yes. Every row, including auto-added ones, can be renamed, reassigned, or removed, and you can add your own custom rows.
Is my data stored?
