Blockchain technology is now a new type of science and technology with high application value in many fields. Exploring its application in the field of international logistics will help solve the problems in international logistics, further accelerate the intelligent process of logistics, reduce costs, and improve the efficiency of international logistics. This paper analyzes the characteristics of blockchain and the problems in international logistics, and finds that there is a close coupling between blockchain technology and international logistics, and then proposes the application models and practical cases.of blockchain technology in international supply chain logistics, international trade logistics and customs clearance.
