Effective from 16 March 2023 (container loading date), combined Demurrage & Detention will be calculated from empty pick up day (included) to ETD (included) on last Booking Confirmation / Booking Amendment before empty pick up. For barge service, will be calculated till actual departure date for whole barge (no matter if delayed or not). For special Combined DnD deal, days beyond the free time, you will be charged based on the Progressive Tier Structure as per our standard tariff.
Progressive Tier Structure means at the end of the free time period, per diem begins at the rate tier applicable based on the consumed free days. To better understand, below example for your reference:
- POL, SGH
- Equip type, 20GP
- Tariff freetime, 1-7days, free
- 8-15 days, CNY100/day
- 16-20 days, CNY240/day
- 21 days onwards, CNY300/day
