SHEKOU Stevedoring Tariff

I have gone through the attachment provided by TSL and understood that the tier level tariff is applicable only for local inbound and outbound containers (seems to be there is a separate tariff for transshipment)

But still we are not clear about the rule for the calculation

Q1: Will this be keep on accumulating or should it be initialized at the beginning of each year or month

TSL reply: A1: Yes, accumulate

ID reply – This means there is no initialization and the teu count of the previous year will be carried forward to the next year and so on?

TSL reply: A1: No, the calculation is initialized by a new contractual year, old volume don’t be involved.

Q2: How to accumulate the TEU and apply the correct rate?

Example

Vessel / ETA / Type / Teus / Rate / Accumulated Teus / Remarks
V1/A / 01-Jan-2013 / 20GP / 20000 / 650 / 20000 / Belongs to first tier
V2/B / 10-Jan-2013 / 20GP / 40000 / 650 / 60000 / Belongs to first tier
V3/C / 15-Feb-2013 / 20GP / 20000 / 650 / 80000 / Even though the teus exceeded 70000, discounted rate will be applicable from next voyage only
V4/D / 25-Feb-2013 / 20GP / 10000 / 570 / 90000 / Second tier
V5/E / 10-Mar-2013 / 20GP / 20000 / 570 / 110000 / Even though the teus exceeded 100000, discounted rate will be applicable from the next voyage only
F / 20-Mar-2013 / 20GP / 10000 / 531 / 120000 / Third tier

Note: Please note that the teus are exaggerated to simplify the calculation

TSL Reply: A2: The transiting voyage still apply old tariff, the next voyage use the new tariff.

ID reply – Clear
