# Intelligent Document Processing (iDP) Discussions

Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) for Customs is a specialised category of software that solves the biggest challenge in global trade: data entry, by leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to completely automating the process of trade paperwork. IDP systems employ sophisticated machine learning to quickly read and capture complex, unstructured data from diverse sources - such as commercial invoices, packing lists, and bills of lading - and transform it into clean, validated, and structured data. The core function is to eliminate the costly, error-prone manual entry traditionally required to populate customs declaration forms and ensure compliance with global regulations. By automating this step, IDP accelerates customs clearance, ensures universal data consistency across all shipments, and provides essential, secure audit trails by maintaining a secure, traceable repository of all source documents. This solution is indispensable for high-volume importers, exporters, and logistics providers seeking to master compliance and drive operational efficiency.
