重要提醒:管制代理人必須確保對非已知貨物進行保安檢查
香港民航處發出最新通告,要求嚴格遵守貨物保安檢查程序
親愛的客戶,
香港民航處於2025年9月發出了管制代理人通告第5/2025號,提醒所有管制代理人必須確保對非已知貨物進行適當的保安檢查。 作為您值得信賴的貨運代理合作夥伴,我們希望與您分享這項重要的合規要求更新。
通告背景
近期調查發現有管制代理人將非已知貨物當作已知貨物交付的嚴重缺失。 涉案的管制代理人在未確認收到任何保安檢查收據或貨物保安檢查結果的情況下,錯誤地在主空運提單上註明「已知貨物(SPX)」。 根據《管制代理人通告第6/2021號》,此類行為屬於嚴重缺失,該管制代理人的資格已被暫停。
關鍵合規要求
1. 主動確認保安檢查結果
管制代理人的負責人和貨物保安指定人必須確保職員已檢查由管制空運貨物安檢設施發出的保安檢查收據,方可在裝運單據上註明「SPX」並提交單據。 如未能即時獲取保安檢查收據,可透過電子郵件或其他渠道收到的書面通知確認該票貨物的保安檢查結果。
2. 妥善使用管制代理人身份
管制代理人編號僅可註明於以其管制代理人身份托運貨物的裝運單據上。 如管制代理人被發現不當使用其身份,民航處保留權利暫停或撤銷該管制代理人資格。 涉及欺詐或偽造文件的個案,將交由香港警務處調查。
3. 帳戶管理責任
任何透過使用者帳戶呈交的文件會被視作由持有該帳戶的管制代理人呈交。 因此,管制代理人須就任何違反規定的缺失負責。管制代理人必須確保帳戶的登錄密碼和權限只開放予獲授權的職員,並確保該等職員在主動確認保安檢查結果後才申報貨物的保安狀態。
我們的承諾
作為負責任的貨運代理商,我們已建立完善的程序以確保完全遵守這些要求:
- ✅ 建立清晰的保安檢查確認程序
- ✅ 妥善保留所有保安檢查收據和相關記錄
- ✅ 嚴格管控系統帳戶權限

對客戶的影響
這些加強的合規措施確保:

Important Alert: Regulated Agents Must Ensure Security Screening on Unknown Cargo
CAD Issues New Notice Requiring Strict Compliance with Cargo Security Screening Procedures
Dear Valued Customers,
The Civil Aviation Department (CAD) of Hong Kong issued Notice to Regulated Agents 5/2025 in September 2025, reminding all Regulated Agents (RAs) to ensure proper security screening on unknown cargo. As your trusted freight forwarding partner, we want to share this important compliance update with you.
Notice Background
A recent investigation revealed a major deficiency where RAs were tendering unknown cargo as known cargo. The subject RA declared cargo as Known Cargo without confirming receipt of screening records by annotating “SPX” on Master Air Waybill (MAWB) submitted to aircraft operators. According to Notice to RAs 6/2021, this constitutes a major deficiency, resulting in the suspension of the RA’s status.
Key Compliance Requirements
1. Positive Confirmation on Security Screening Results
Persons-In-Charge (PICs) and Nominated Persons for Cargo Security (NPs) of RAs must ensure their staff checks for screening receipts issued by Regulated Air Cargo Screening Facilities (RACSF) before annotating “SPX” on shipping documents. Alternative written confirmation such as email notifications may be accepted when screening receipts are not immediately available.
2. Proper Use of RA Status
RA codes should only be indicated on shipping documents for shipments under their genuine custody in all circumstances. If an RA is found misusing its RA status, CAD reserves the right to suspend or remove the RA from the register. Cases involving fraud, falsifications, or forgery will be referred to Hong Kong Police Force for investigation.
3. User Account Management
All documents submitted with a user account are considered as submitted by the RA who owns the account, making them responsible for any deficiency arising from non-compliance. RAs must ensure access to login credentials is restricted to authorized staff and that security status is declared only after positively confirming screening results.
Our Commitment
As a responsible freight forwarder, we have established comprehensive procedures to ensure full compliance with these requirements:
- ✅ Clear security screening confirmation procedures
- ✅ Proper retention of all screening receipts and related records
- ✅ Strict control of system account access
- ✅ Regular training on latest compliance requirements
Impact on Our Customers
These enhanced compliance measures ensure:
- Your cargo security is protected to the highest standards
- Transportation processes fully comply with regulatory requirements
- Prevention of delays or penalties due to compliance issues
We will continue to monitor regulatory developments closely to ensure we provide safe, compliant freight forwarding services. Please feel free to contact our customer service team if you have any questions.
