Before you quote — watch for
- Evergreen filings escalate steeply after the first band — day 8 can cost triple day 4.
- Appointment scarcity is the top reversal ground here: days when no dual-transaction slot existed are not merchant-caused under the FMC rule.
- 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.
