Abstract
The dynamic growth of trade in goods in Polish ports recorded in recent years, as well as the growing requirements of exporters and importers concerning efficiency, time and reduction of cargo handling costs and coordination of logistic port processes, create a number of requirements for fast and modern information circulation and safe transmission of documents. This chapter focuses on the complexity of information exchange in port operations. Digitalisation of processes for a more efficient exchange of information can be a solution. The digitisation challenge here is to develop and implement the Port Community System as an integrated maritime economy customer service platform, involving all stakeholders in port and border processes.
