Before you quote — watch for

  • APL and ANL bills of lading are filed separately — a group-brand booking rated on the CMA CGM schedule is mis-rated.
  • Reefer plug charges are billed by the terminal and again by some carriers — a classic double charge.
  • US import: the FMC rule (46 CFR 541) requires the charge to serve an incentive purpose and the invoice to carry 13 specific elements. A defective invoice eliminates the obligation to pay.

Derived from the carrier’s published tariff structure plus the prevailing local norm for this port. Your service contract overrides it. CMA CGM local agency D&D finder Group brands filed separately: APL, ANL, Containerships.
