Maritime Knowledge: Container VGM 🚢 What is Container VGM? VGM (Verified Gross Mass) refers to the verified total weight of a loaded container, which includes: 🏷️Cargo weight 🏷️Weight of external packaging (e.g., pallets, cartons, reinforcement materials) 🏷️Tare weight of the empty container (as marked on the container body). Shippers can obtain the VGM of a container through the following methods: ⚖️ Method 1: Weighing the Entire Container Use officially certified weighing equipment to measure the total weight of the loaded container. ⚖️ Method 2: Calculated Weight Method Individually weigh all packages and cargo inside the container, then add the weight of the dunnage, securing materials, and the tare weight of the container to calculate the total weight. ⚠️ Declaration Requirements Shippers must: 1️⃣Clearly indicate the VGM data, verification method, and verification statement on shipping documents. 2️⃣Submit the information to the carrier and terminal operator. ⚠️ Risks of Inaccurate VGM Declarations Failure to accurately declare VGM can result in severe consequences, such as: 1️⃣Improper ship stowage or overloading, which may lead to: 🏷️Containers falling overboard 🏷️Vessel instability or capsizing 🏷️Structural damage to the ship 🏷️Collapsed container stacks 🏷️Cranes at terminals collapsing 2️⃣Serious accidents causing injuries, fatalities, and property damage, posing significant risks to vessel operations and terminal activities. Reasons for Inaccurate Declarations 1️⃣ Risk-Taking Mentality: Shippers may assume that inaccurate data will go unnoticed or won't lead to accidents, thereby neglecting compliance with regulations. 2️⃣ Pursuit of Cost Efficiency: Intentionally underreporting VGM to reduce shipping costs, especially when shipping lines or ports have weight restrictions or charge based on weight. 3️⃣ Lack of Proper Weighing Equipment: Failure to use certified weighing equipment, relying instead on rough estimates or past data, resulting in significant discrepancies. #Shipping #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade #maritime #VGM

🚢 Should the Manifest and Bill of Lading Cargo Descriptions Match❓ The cargo descriptions on the Manifest and the Bill of Lading (B/L) must remain consistent❗️ Why is consistency required? 🏷️ Customs Clearance Requirements Customs and other regulatory authorities typically require that the information on the Manifest and Bill of Lading matches to ensure the authenticity and traceability of the cargo. 🏷️ Consistency Requirements between Manifest and Bill of Lading 1️⃣ Cargo Description (Name): The cargo descriptions on the Manifest and Bill of Lading should be identical, including key details such as name, quantity, and weight. 2️⃣ HS Code (Harmonized System Code): The HS Code on the Manifest and the Bill of Lading should match to facilitate customs clearance. The first six digits of the HS Code must be consistent across both documents. 3️⃣ Packaging Information: Details such as packaging type and quantity should also match. 4️⃣ Other Relevant Information: Information like Shipper, Consignee, and Notify Party should be consistent. Possible Exceptions: In certain cases, there may be minor discrepancies, such as: 1️⃣ Simplified Cargo Description: The cargo description on the Manifest may be more simplified compared to the Bill of Lading, which may provide a more detailed description. 2️⃣ Supplementary Information: The Bill of Lading may include additional details not found on the Manifest. However, this should not compromise the consistency of the core cargo description. ⚠️Important Notes⚠️ 1️⃣The cargo description on the Manifest should not include amounts, HS Codes, price terms, etc. 2️⃣The Bill of Lading cargo description can display such details. #Shipping #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade #maritime

🚢DAP (Delivered at Place)⚓️ Delivered at Place (DAP) is an Incoterm that specifies the seller's responsibilities for delivering goods to a buyer-designated location. Under DAP, the seller delivers when the goods are made available to the buyer on the arriving means of transport, ready for unloading. The seller assumes all risks and costs associated with delivering the goods to the specified destination, except for import-related costs. Seller's Obligations under DAP 1️⃣ Transportation Contract: The seller must arrange and pay for the transportation of goods to the agreed destination or a specific location within it. 2️⃣ Delivery of Goods: Delivery is deemed completed when the seller places the goods at the buyer's disposal on the arriving means of transport, ready for unloading. The seller must notify the buyer in time to allow for necessary arrangements to receive the goods. 3️⃣ Risk and Cost: The seller bears all risks and costs associated with the goods until they are delivered on the arriving means of transport at the designated location. 4️⃣ Export Compliance: At the seller's risk and cost, they must secure any required export licenses, complete all necessary export and transit customs formalities, and provide the buyer with a commercial invoice or equivalent electronic documentation. Buyer's Obligations under DAP 1️⃣ Post-Delivery Risk and Cost: The buyer assumes all risks and costs related to the goods once they are delivered on the arriving means of transport at the designated location. 2️⃣ Import Compliance: The buyer is responsible for obtaining any required import licenses, completing all necessary import customs formalities, and bearing any import duties, taxes, or other charges. 3️⃣ Goods Reception: The buyer must accept the goods, provide payment as per the contract, and handle unloading at the destination. Key Takeaways Seller's Responsibility: Deliver the goods to the agreed location, ready for unloading, while covering all pre-delivery risks and costs. Buyer's Responsibility: Handle import formalities and costs, as well as unloading the goods at the destination. 🌟Pro Tip🌟 DAP is ideal for situations where the buyer has better resources or expertise in managing import clearance but relies on the seller for end-to-end transportation. Do you frequently use DAP in your shipping contracts? Share your experiences or questions in the comments! #Shipping #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade #maritime #DAP #DeliveredatPlace

🚢Can the Bill of Lading Be Modified After the Ship Has Departed❓ 🌟Types of Amendments： 🏷️ Spelling Errors: Mistakes in consignee names, addresses, or product descriptions, often minor such as a missing period in "LTD." 🏷️ Quantity/Weight Discrepancies: The shipped quantity or weight does not match the actual cargo. 🏷️ Product Description Errors: Information like product names or specifications differs from the actual goods. 🏷️ Incorrect Terms: Payment or transport terms inconsistent with the contract. 🏷️ Critical Information Changes: Mid-transit updates to port or consignee details. 🌟：Amendment Process： 1️⃣ Confirm Error Type and Severity Identify the error type and assess its impact on customs clearance, delivery, etc., at the destination. Essential details like item names, quantities, and consignee information should be corrected if necessary. 2️⃣ Contact Relevant Parties If the shipper requests changes, they should contact the shipping line or agent to explain and apply for correction. If the consignee initiates changes, they may also need the shipper’s assistance for a letter of indemnity. 3️⃣ Submit Correction Request Follow the shipping line’s requirements, submitting the correction request and supporting documents, such as a letter of indemnity. For significant changes, such as product name adjustments, contract, packing list, invoice, and customs documents may be required. 4️⃣ Reference for Specific Amendments 🏷️ Product Name: Product names generally cannot be altered unless they remain within the same product category. If the amendment stays within a similar classification, it is more feasible; if not, the difficulty increases. Final adjustments are subject to forwarder and customs approval. 🏷️ Quantity: If there’s a shortfall at origin, assess whether to amend based on the consignee’s preferences and the destination's customs requirements. Minor shortages may not require amendments if the consignee agrees; otherwise, start changes from customs declaration through the forwarder and shipping line. 🏷️ Consignee Information: Consignee details, especially names, must be accurate. If only the address is incorrect and the consignee is a regular customer, the forwarder might notify them without formal changes. 🏷️ Port of Destination: Port changes are rare but complex, involving shipping line feasibility checks, customer approval, and fee assessments. Communicate thoroughly and confirm all details before proceeding with a port amendment. #Shipping #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade #maritime

🚢Non-Vessel-Operating Common Carrier Non-Vessel-Operating Common Carrier Core Functions 1️⃣ Contracting & Documentation As a contractual carrier, the NVOCC establishes transport agreements with shippers, issuing transport documents (B/L, Waybill) and taking responsibility for the cargo from point of origin to final destination. 2️⃣ Transport Planning Acts as a primary carrier to arrange end-to-end cargo transport, develop transport plans, and coordinate logistics activities throughout the shipment. 3️⃣ Transport Mode Selection Selects transportation methods with the actual carrier (booking space) based on shipper requirements and cargo specifics. 4️⃣ Process Handling Accepts cargo from the shipper, organizes or assists with port-to-port transit, contracts for shipping (under NVOCC’s name), and hands cargo to the ocean carrier. During this process, the NVOCC may also handle customs, inspection, warehousing, and dispatch procedures. 5️⃣ Cargo Delivery Receives goods from the ocean carrier at the destination and delivers them to the consignee. Benefits to Shippers Using an NVOCC simplifies procedures for shippers, bypassing the need for a freight forwarder and reducing administrative steps compared to traditional carriers. Types of NVOCCs 🌟 Carrier-Type NVOCC Operates on designated routes, issuing B/L to shippers and assuming liability for cargo loss or damage during transit. While acting as a contractual carrier, it subcontracts physical transport to actual carriers and delivers to the consignee at the destination. 🌟 Transshipment NVOCC Specializes in transshipment services with branches or agents in key transshipment hubs. It receives goods from shippers or inland carriers, issues B/L, manages relay shipping, and hands cargo over to the ocean carrier for sea transit. Unlike carrier-type NVOCCs, it does not confine routes and may select the most suitable carriers and routes. 🌟 Broker-Type NVOCC Aggregates various shippers’ cargo but does not directly provide transportation. Instead, it "wholesales" shipments by turning them over to transshipment or carrier-type NVOCCs, who then issue B/L. Known for its brokerage role, this type leverages partnerships to arrange transport. NVOCC Rights & Obligations 1️⃣ Issuance of House B/L Primarily performed by freight forwarders, public NVOCCs, and charterers, issuing House B/L for shipments. The Master B/L is provided by the actual ocean carrier. 2️⃣ Direct Contracting with Carriers As a legally designated carrier, the NVOCC has the authority to establish sea transport contracts with shippers in its name, while also contracting with the actual carriers to fulfill the shipment. 3️⃣ Official Certification To be an NVOCC, the company must be certified by the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission (FMC), listed on the official NVOCC registry, and included in FMC’s officially recognized tariff list. This provides legitimacy to suppliers and clients. #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade

🚢 What is a NOR Container in Ocean Freight? ❓ A NOR container, or Non-Operating Reefer, is essentially a refrigerated container used in "dry mode." It’s designed primarily for refrigerated transport. However, in actual shipping operations, due to specific transportation needs and conditions, it may sometimes be used as a regular dry container without powering the refrigeration. 🌟 Special Characteristics of NOR Containers 🏷️ Maintains some structural features of a reefer container, like good insulation properties. 🏷️ Offers flexibility, giving more options when arranging cargo shipments. 👍 Advantages of NOR Containers in Ocean Freight: 1️⃣ Increases flexibility in transportation—allowing shippers to decide on refrigeration based on the actual temperature requirements of the cargo, which helps to meet diverse shipping needs. 2️⃣ During segments where refrigeration is not needed, using a NOR container can lower energy consumption and related costs compared to a fully powered refrigerated container. 👎 Disadvantages of NOR Containers in Ocean Freight: 1️⃣ Temperature control is less stable than in an active reefer container, so for goods with stringent temperature requirements, using a NOR container may impact product quality. 2️⃣ Not all types of cargo are suitable for transport in a NOR container; items that are highly perishable or temperature-sensitive may face risks in such an environment. ⚠️ Although NOR containers can be used as dry containers in specific cases, it’s crucial to carefully consider factors like cargo characteristics, shipping route, and climate conditions when deciding whether to use a NOR container for transport. #Shipping #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade #maritime #NORContainer #NOR

Cargo Export: Differences Between Manifest Fee & Advanced Manifest Fees ❓ During the export process, "Manifest Fee" and "Advanced Manifest Fees" are two common charges, each with distinct purposes and applicable ranges. Manifest Fee 🏷️ Applicable Scope: The Manifest Fee is a mandatory charge for exporting cargo, regardless of the destination country or region. This is a fundamental step in the international shipping process, aimed at ensuring accurate cargo information is submitted to customs. 🏷️ Specific Purpose: A manifest is a detailed cargo list submitted to customs by the carrier (e.g., the shipping line or freight forwarder), containing essential information such as the cargo’s name, quantity, weight, and volume. This step is crucial for customs oversight and cargo clearance; without a valid manifest, the cargo cannot complete customs procedures. Advanced Manifest Fees (e.g., AMS, ENS, AFR, etc.) 🇺🇸 AMS (Automated Manifest System) for the U.S.: Required for cargo exports to the United States, demanding advance cargo information submission to U.S. Customs. 🇪🇺 ENS (Entry Summary Declaration) for the EU: Similar to AMS, this applies to cargo exports to the European Union, with advance cargo information submission required for EU customs review. 🇯🇵 AFR (Advance Filing Rules) for Japan: Applies to cargo exports to Japan, requiring advance cargo information submission. 🇨🇦 ACI (Advance Commercial Information) for Canada: Also required for exports to Canada, where commercial information must be submitted in advance. Purpose of Charges: The Advanced Manifest Fees ensure compliance with specific customs security and regulatory requirements in certain countries/regions, verifying that cargo meets local standards during transit. These fees are typically associated with security screening and regulatory compliance checks. #Shipping #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade #maritime

🚢Port Congestion⚓️ What is Port Congestion？ 📚Port congestion refers to a situation at the port where cargo handling and storage capabilities reach or exceed maximum operational capacity, causing vessels to be unable to berth for unloading or cargo to be delayed in onward transport. This results in port backlog and cargo buildup. ⚠️ Port congestion typically occurs in the following scenarios: 1️⃣ Concentrated Cargo Arrival: Due to trade patterns, seasonal demand fluctuations, or poor supply chain planning, a large volume of cargo arrives at the port simultaneously, surpassing the port's processing speed. 2️⃣ Logistics Bottlenecks: These include, but are not limited to, container shortages, limited trucking capacity, warehouse space restrictions, and customs inspection delays, all of which can extend cargo dwell time at the port. 3️⃣ Weather or Natural Factors: Severe weather conditions, such as typhoons or heavy fog, may prevent vessels from entering the port or lead to operational halts, resulting in congestion. 4️⃣ Equipment or Infrastructure Failures: Failures or maintenance of port handling equipment can reduce the number of operational berths, slowing cargo turnaround. 5️⃣ International Trade Policy Changes: Changes such as tariff adjustments or shifts in trade routes due to trade disputes can suddenly increase congestion at specific ports. 6️⃣ Pandemic or Special Events: Health and safety measures or quarantine requirements during pandemics may reduce operational efficiency, leading to port congestion. 7️⃣ Transshipment Port Issues: In international cargo transport, congestion at transshipment ports can impact cargo flow on subsequent routes, causing delays across the supply chain. #Shipping #Logistics #GlobalShipping #InternationalTrade #maritime #PortCongestion
