What is BSC?
BSC is a mandatory loading document for all shipments to Ivory Coast. It is required for Abidjan, Baobab Marine Terminal, port of Sasandra, San Pedro or any other port. It is also known as CTN. It was determined as a regulation in 2005 by the Ivorian Customs Officials. Failing to present the BSC document will lead to severe consequences and a hefty fine.
Procedure
According to this law, every cargo purchased from abroad and transported for commercial, business, in some cases, diplomatic and personal purposes require a Loading Certificate called BSC – Bordereau de Suivi des Cargaisons.

Ivory Coast BSC Regulations
To monitor all Côte d’Ivoire volumes, the Office Ivoirien des Chargeurs, in 2003 (OIC – the Ivorian Shippers Council) introduced a Bordereau de Suivi de Cargaison (BSC) – a cargo tracking note. The order urged Shippers to apply for BSC with an exceptional decision of creating CTN/BSC at the destination port. However, allowing the recommendations of the National Workshop, in 2013, all shippers were informed that the exceptional decision of creating a Cargo Tracking Note at the destination in the Ivorian seaports was repealed. As a result, customs clearance is not possible without the BSC at arrival, and cargo can be returned.
