Supply Chain

Build digital trust into cross-border trade

Cross-border goods still travel with documents, PDF declarations, and bilateral agreements. EBSI provides a shared digital trust layer so any actor can verify data directly, across systems and borders.

Reduce repeated verification

When goods move across borders, trade actors need reliable ways to confirm origin, declarations, certificates, and supporting evidence. EBSI enables trusted data to be issued and verified digitally, helping reduce reliance on manual document checks and repeated bilateral verification.

Make product data easier to verify

New regulatory and market expectations require product data to travel with goods across the supply chain. With verifiable credentials, product information such as composition, certification, sustainability claims, and due diligence evidence can be checked against trusted issuers.

Strengthen trust across supply-chain handovers

Supply chains involve many actors, systems, and control points. Each handover creates a need to confirm that the right data is attached to the right product, shipment, or declaration. EBSI helps create a common verification layer, allowing authorised parties to check trusted data without relying on a single commercial platform.
