Weight Discrepancy Fee

Due to inaccurate cargo weight indication in bookings we continuously faced serious operational challenges. This had limited us in accepting additional cargo. Since 15th of August, 2009 Weight discrepancy fee usd 100 per B/L was implemented.
Weight discrepancy fee is invoiced when:

1. B/L cargo gross weight differs from booked weight by more than 10% (greater or lower), but difference should be not less than 2mt.
2. Discrepancy between VGM and Stuffed weight + Tare weight in shipping instructions is equal 2mt or differs more than 2mt (greater or lower).
3. Declared VGM exceeds allowable payload as per CSC Plate (excluding SOC).
4. Declared VGM is less than Tare Weight of the container. Any failures to follow 2-4 scenarios will result to excluding containers from loading on planned vessel and to applying of Weight discrepancy fee of USD 100 per bill of lading. Discrepancy should be fixed. Charge will be applicable at the moment once discrepancy has arisen & cannot be removed.

Manual Shipping Instruction procedure

Manual shipping instructions or manual bill of lading/sea waybill to be sent to Global service centre (PNQGSCIDX@maersk.com) . Manual shipping instruction fee is usd 100 per bill of lading/sea waybill.

Amendment of issued bill of lading/sea waybill is subject to Import Customs Manifest in import country and transport document re-issuance fee USD 25.

When the customer submits Shipping Instructions after documentation cut off date Late Transport Documentation Fee usd 50 per bill of lading is applicable. The charge will not apply if delays are caused due to Maersk errors..
