How can I modify or delete a pre-notification, e.g. modification of equipment number), booking number or document number?

A pre-notification can be modified or deleted by the forwarder who submitted the pre-notification, as long as the cargo has not yet arrived at the terminal. Once the cargo has arrived at the terminal, only the terminal can make changes, and only until the export manifest has been submitted.
