About event
On April 27-29, 2020 the Xth International Seminar on Trade and Transport Facilitation «Multimodal transport data exchange, digital transport corridors, and trade facilitation» will be held in Odesa, Ukraine within the framework of the International Trade and Transport Week.
The Seminar is the follow up of the results of the 9th seminar "Data Sharing for Multimodal Transport and Trade Facilitation in the Common European Space" (Odessa, May 28, 2019). It will focus on the data exchange in multimodal transport based on international standards, so that data is readily used and re-used in Port Community Systems, Single Window systems and within the framework of multimodal corridors using Data Pipeline.
This year, given the situation that has developed in Ukraine and all over the world in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the seminar will be held in online format.
Seminar will focus on facilitating data exchange among different stakeholders and modes of transport using UN/CEFACT standards, reference data models, and schemas. Electronic data exchange in trade and transport is even more important under the COVID-19 emergency, because of the need to decrease physical person-to-person interaction and expenses in the supply chain.
Participants from Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Lithuania, Moldova,
Tajikistan, and Ukraine have been invited to participate
During the seminar the representatives of the Government of Ukraine, UNECE, WTO, UN/CEFACT, WEF, International Port Community Systems Association, Association «UKRZOVNISHTRANS», ICC Ukraine and Ukrainian Sea Port Authority will discuss progress in WTO Agreement on Trade Facilitation implementation in Ukraine; issues of creating National Single Window and data harmonization.

Also, delegates of relevant international organizations will consider the following issues:
collection and analysis of key transport documents forms and formats (consignment notes, bills of lading, etc.), e.g. used for transportation along corridors (Baltic Sea-Black Sea, GUAM), data alignment to the UN/CEFACT multimodal transport and other reference data models, the issue of a standard data set for multimodal transport; and what has been done since the seminar in May 2019;
the use of documents, data sets and schemas based on UN/CEFACT deliverables in real business process;
the concrete electronic consignment notes eCMR (aligned to the UN/CEFACT multimodal transport reference data model) and CIM/SMGS;
the use of a standardized multimodal transport data set in Port Community Systems, Single Window facilities, data pipelines, and in such corridors as Baltic Sea-Black Sea (Odessa-Klaipeda) or GUAM.
10-11 December 2018.
For its 10-year history, the annual UNECE Odessa seminars were associated with three success stories:
