Dubai Customs hopes the blockchain solution will facilitate tamper-proof data sharing, save time and effort and reduce voluminous paperwork for local supply chains.
Dubai Customs has announced the launch of a new blockchain platform aimed at smoothing out supply chain friction within Dubai and across its borders.
The blockchain solution was launched as part of a broader strategy to cement Dubai’s position as a leading “smart” city, Dubai Media Office said in a July 8 statement.
“This innovation reflects our vision to make Dubai a global hub for trade and logistics,” said Ahmed bin Sulayem, Chairman of the Ports, Customs, and Free Zone Corporation.
