Before you quote — watch for

  • On several intra-Asia trades ONE grants one combined free period; counting two separately overstates your free time.
  • 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.
