Which one is correct?

We do not receive any arrival notices upon arrival of shipments at the port / we are not receiving any arrival notices upon arrival of shipments at the port
  

Top answer

Both the sentences are acceptable but means different. We do not receive any arrival notices upon arrival of shipments at the port - means you do not receive any arrival notices at all. We are not receiving any arrival notices upon arrival of shipments at the port - - means you used to receive arrival notices before, but now it has stopped.
