Abstract

This research intends to unveil the positive implications of using blockchain-based technology in international trade, specifically in importation customs clearance activities. The application of blockchain technology in customs clearance offers several benefits, such as simplifying customs procedures, improving global supply chain management, preventing customs-related risks, and enabling real-time product verification in terms of quantity, quality, and origin. Through qualitative analysis using Nvivo software, this research examines the implementation of the blockchain platform PortNet in Morocco and its impact on import customs procedures. The findings suggest that the use of blockchain technology through PortNet has effectively facilitated and streamlined the import customs process. By utilizing blockchain technology, this study highlights the potential for increased efficiency, transparency, and reliability in international commercial transactions, which can contribute to improved trade facilitation and economic growth.
