Note:
Detention/Demurrage charges are applicable as from 01 July 2009.
For import containers, demurrage charges and/or free time is calculated as from discharge date of containers in Moroni and Mutsamudu. While for export, same is calculated as from pick up date from depot/Terminal.
As per clauses 15.4 of Maersk Bill of Lading, if containers supplied by or on behalf of the Carrier are unpacked at the Merchant's premises, the Merchant is responsible for returning the empty containers with interior clean, odour free and in the same condition as received, to the point or place designated by the Carrier within the time prescribed. Should a container not be returned in the condition required and/or within the time prescribed in the Tariff, the Merchant shall be liable for any detention, loss or expense incurred as a result thereof.
Moreover, as per clause 15.5, containers released into the care of the Merchant for packing, unpacking or any other purpose whatsoever are the sole risk of the Merchant until redelivered to the Carrier. The Merchant shall indemnify the Carrier for all loss of and/or delay to such containers. Merchants are deemed to be aware of the dimensions and capacity of any containers released to them.
Containers must be returned within the prescribed period unless prior arrangements are made and agreed with Maersk.
