Sign ICEGATE filings — flat file, JSON and PDF — from one desk

With a saved signing profile, connect your DSC token once and sign a whole batch of SCMTR and Bill-of-Entry declarations in a single session — no reconnecting the token for each file. Built to ICEGATE's Common Signer format.

Supported workflows

The formats ICEGATE accepts

📄

Flat File (.be)

Sign Bill-of-Entry and other flat-file declarations with your DSC — the signature rides with the file in the format the portal expects.

{ }

JSON (SCMTR & filings)

The signature is embedded inside the JSON itself as a digSign block (SHA-256 with RSA) — the same shape the official Common Signer utility produces, kept as a .json.

🖊

PDF signing

Sign supporting PDFs with the same token, LTV and timestamp — the green-tick signature portals and auditors accept.

🤖

Batch & Autopilot Enterprise

Point Autopilot at a folder; each new .be / .json is signed the instant it arrives, already-signed files skipped.

The point that saves CHAs hours

Connect the token once, sign the whole batch

Opening the token per file would ask for the PIN on every single declaration. With a saved signing profile, the token is opened once, the PIN entered once, and every flat-file / JSON declaration in the batch is signed in that one session — then the token is released at the end.

Said precisely: this is a registered, saved signing setup that avoids reconnecting the physical USB token for each supported flat-file / JSON signing operation in a run. It is not tokenless signing — your DSC token and credential are still required and used. "Tokenless PDF signing" is not a current feature.

What depends on the current portal

Final acceptance depends on ICEGATE's current build and MIG. We recommend a quick test submission on your ICEGATE registration before a high-volume run.
