Here the focus is on the e-puertobilbao platform providing a one-stop telematics window service that allows users, in a remote and unified manner, to carry out the administrative processing required for the declaration of dangerous goods in passage in the Port of Bilbao.

The service is aimed at shipping agents and integrates the Port Authority of Bilbao and the Harbour Master (Merchant Navy) at Bilbao into one procedure only, by managing traffic of information among these agents in a totally transparent way.

Likewise, it provides a complete response to the whole dangerous goods operational cycle in their passage through the Port, by covering the presentation of the documentation required by the different administrations involved, processing of authorizations, sending notifications to terminals and transport managers, generating the daily bulletin of entries and departures of the goods and control of time goods are staying in port area.
