Hapag-Lloyd Local Charges, Detention Tariff and Inland Rates by Country
Local charges are published per country and move in a quarterly change table. Each line carries country, POL/POD location, import or export, charge code, charge description, currency, amount and unit - per container, per TEU, per BL or per invoice. India shows the depth: a destination documentation fee (DDF) and a manifest amendment fee (MFD) per BL, an equipment maintenance fee (EMF) split into dry, reefer or hazardous, and special equipment, import service fees, dock de-stuffing (STR) and off-dock charges per port, each line with an effective date, an expiry date and, where one applies, its tariff entry.
The Hapag-Lloyd detention tariff comes per country and direction. The India import detention table, for example, gives free time in calendar days, then the amounts for a first period, a second period and thereafter, split into 20' dry, 40' dry and high cube, and temperature-controlled and special equipment.
The Hapag-Lloyd inland tariff lists from and to points, container type, dangerous or non-dangerous cargo, lower and upper gross weight, effective date and publishing date; German ports add quarterly ramp rate indications and rail capacity updates. The Hapag-Lloyd tariff rules sit in a section of their own and explain each charge. Rates of exchange are shown per port and schedule voyage from a week before departure or arrival.
