We would like to inform you that, with effect from the date (10 January 2022) of this notice, as part
of carrier’s tariff, a charge of USD 30,000.00 per container globally will be imposed upon the shipper
and/or consignee for any misdeclaration of dangerous and hazardous cargoes / goods (DG Goods).
Misdeclaration includes but is not limited to incorrect/partial declaration, late declaration, alteration
or omission of such declaration.
In addition to this charge, we wish to highlight that amongst others, the shipper and consignee will
be held liable and responsible for all corrective measures, claims, fines, liabilities, losses, delays,
damages or expenses arising in consequence of such misdeclaration. Please also refer to PIL’s bill of
lading terms and conditions.
We also wish to highlight that failure to properly declare DG Goods constitutes a breach of contract
which also violates the applicable law, endangers lives, causes significant economic losses and
adversely affects the operations of the entire supply chain.
As such, we require our valued customers to correctly declare all DG Goods. We greatly appreciate
your support and cooperation in our efforts to maintain a safe supply chain.
