Dear Valued Customers,

As we continue our journey to continually reinforce our safety practices to protect our crew, vessels, and cargo, we would like to inform you that, with immediate effect, we will implement penalties for mis-declared cargo.

Dangerous Goods
A charge of USD 5,000 per container will be imposed upon the shipper and/or consignee for any misdeclaration of dangerous and hazardous goods (DG cargo). Misdeclaration includes but is not limited to incorrect/partial declaration, late declaration, alteration, or omission of such declaration.

Container Weight
A charge of USD 5,000 per container will be imposed upon the shipper for any incorrect declaration of weight.

We also wish to highlight that failure to declare DG cargo 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 cargo.

Please do not hesitate to contact your local Pacific Forum Line Representative if you have any questions.

Yours sincerely,
Pacific Forum Line
