Passport

Passport (Passport Global, Inc.) is a cross-border ecommerce logistics and compliance platform founded in 2017 that helps direct-to-consumer brands sell and ship internationally to 190+ markets. The company combines its own international parcel network (Passport Shipping) with in-country enablement, marketplace management, trade and fiscal compliance, seller/merchant-of-record services, duty drawback, and returns. Its public REST API — the Passport Global API, currently version 3.15 — exposes landed-cost rating, shipping label generation and voiding, order submission and management, cart-level duty and tax quoting, currency-converted product pricing, and a tax-and-duty calculator, authenticated with an X-Access-Token API key issued by the Passport onboarding team.

agent ready

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Passport the way a machine reads it — 20 machine-readable artifacts across 8 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Passport scores 46.4/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 39/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Passport

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Passport. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 8

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Passport Cart API

The Cart API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for cart.

Passport Healthcheck API

The Healthcheck API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for healthcheck.

Passport Order API

The Order API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for order.

Passport Product Price API

The Product Price API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for product price.

Passport Rate API

The Rate API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for rate.

Passport Ship API

The Ship API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for ship.

Passport Tax And Duty API

The Tax And Duty API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for tax and duty.

Passport Void API

The Void API from Passport — 1 operation(s) for void.

Open Collections 9

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Security Posture 2

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Passport, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
