Customs & Trade Compliance on PYRAX
Customs and trade compliance governs the documents, duties, and controls that let goods cross borders legally. Filings are duplicated across brokers, carriers, and multiple national customs systems, inviting fraud and delay. PYRAX gives customs authorities selective, cryptographically verifiable visibility into shipments while traders keep their commercial data private.

What's broken today
How PYRAX transforms it
Concrete network elements mapped to this business.
Viewing keys for customs authorities
A trader issues a customs authority a scoped viewing key granting exactly the fields that clearance requires - value, origin, HS code - without exposing the full commercial relationship.
Shielded-by-default transfers
Declared transaction values settle privately while a proof of the declared amount is available to the relevant authority, so margins are not published to every intermediary.
eth_getProof verifiable declarations
Preferential-origin and HS-classification claims are backed by proofs customs can verify against upstream provenance, enabling green-lane clearance without inspection.
Multi-VM smart contracts
Duty calculation, drawback, and sanctions-screening logic run as auditable contracts, giving traders and authorities a shared, deterministic rulebook.
BLS instant finality
Single-slot BLS finality means a customs release event is irreversible immediately, so downstream carriers can act on clearance with no re-org risk.
