JSWIFT Customs Broker Registration

Registration for User Access 

All users must be registered in order to access the services in JSWIFT. All users of JSWIFT will access the system through one individual JSWIFT User Account, whether for personal transactions or for transactions on behalf of organizations the user is associated with. Once the user accesses the system through their individual user account, they may then associate themselves with the organizations they represent.  This initial registration is “individual”; it requires the applicant to enter their personal data and upload an approved government issued ID. This is required to identify and verify the individual who will be given access on the JSWIFT platform. The User Access must never be shared hence all individuals using the system must have their own user credentials. 

Have your TRN and a saved copy of a government issued ID (Passport, Driver’s Licence and National ID) before completing the application. 

Please complete the Application Form in BLOCK CAPITALS or Sentence Case.
