The Transport Directory (also called the Business Directory) is where customers look for transport and logistics companies. This tutorial shows you how to list your company, activate your profile and make it stand out. It is for members and for companies that are not yet registered.

## Why should I list my company?
- Customers can find you by service and country, see your details and send you a message.
- Customers' freight quote requests (RFQs) go to listed companies that offer the service in the country asked for.
- You receive cargo load enquiries and notifications.

> **Important:** Without a company profile you will not receive any RFQs or cargo load notifications.

## What do I need before I start?
- Your company logo (a JPG or PNG image).
- At least one of these official documents: a **Bank Confirmation Letter**, a **Business Registration Document** or a **Business Tax Certificate**.
- Your company contact details, physical address and a short description of what you do.
