About Maqta Gateway
Maqta Gateway is the digital arm of AD Ports Group, the Abu Dhabi ports and logistics company. It develops and operates digital platforms that connect the many parties involved in trade, such as shipping lines, freight forwarders, customs authorities, importers and exporters.
Trade involves a large amount of documentation and coordination. Before a container can be unloaded or cleared, information must be exchanged between shipping agents, port operators, customs, inspection agencies and logistics providers. Traditionally, much of this has been handled through paperwork, emails and separate systems. Maqta Gateway's platforms bring these processes into a single digital environment.
A key product is the Advanced Trade and Logistics Platform (ATLP), which acts as a single window for trade and logistics services in Abu Dhabi. Businesses can submit documents, apply for permits, track shipments and pay fees through one platform, reducing the time and cost of moving goods.
Maqta Gateway also operates a port community system, which connects the stakeholders in the port ecosystem and allows information to flow smoothly between them. This improves visibility, reduces delays and supports faster clearance of cargo.
The company has worked on technologies such as data analytics and automation to further improve trade processes. Its expertise in digital trade platforms has also been offered to other ports and countries, extending its reach beyond Abu Dhabi.
Being part of AD Ports Group gives Maqta Gateway direct access to port operations and the logistics ecosystem it serves, allowing it to design systems based on real operational needs.
The UAE has made trade facilitation and digital government a priority, aiming to reduce the time and cost of importing and exporting. Digital trade platforms are central to these efforts.
Globally, ports and customs authorities are increasingly digitising trade processes, as paper-based systems cause delays and inefficiencies.
Maqta Gateway shows how digital platforms can speed up the movement of goods, and it is profiled on Startups UAE among Abu Dhabi's logistics technology companies.
