# Pagero UN/EDIFACT IFTMIN D96A

UN/EDIFACT is an international standard for electronic data interchange (EDI) developed for the United Nations and approved and published by UNECE, the UN Economic Commission for Europe.

The EDIFACT standard provides a set of syntax rules to structure, an interactive exchange protocol and provides a set of standard messages which allow multi-country and multi-industry exchange of electronic business documents. EDIFACT is widely used across Europe, mainly due to the fact that many companies adopted it very early on.

More general information can be found here UNECE: Introducing UN/EDIFACT.

We develop and maintain our own Message Implementation Guidelines (MIG) for UN/EDIFACT D96A.
