North America Demurrage Tariff Changes
Import Demurrage Charge at Canada & U.S. Rail Ramps (CY Delivery Only)
Dear Valued Customer,
On August 16, 2021, we shared a customer advisory about implementation of import demurrage at rail ramps. There has been some confusion regarding this announcement and we would like to clarify.
The intent was to adjust the number of free days and the charge per day after free time has expired. However, we have decided to not move forward with this change and will continue to charge import demurrage at rail ramps as we have been. Free time is, and will remain, 4 working days for Dry equipment and 2 working days for Reefer and Special equipment. Below are the daily rates to be charged after free time has expired.
| Days | Dry Equipment |
| Day 1-4 | $215 Per Day |
| Day 5-9 | $265 Per Day |
| Day 10+ | $315 Per Day |
| Days | Dry Equipment |
| Day 1-3 | $340 Per Day |
| Day 4-7 | $440 Per Day |
| Day 8+ | $490 Per Day |
| Days | Dry Equipment |
| Day 1-3 | $400 Per Day |
| Day 4-7 | $500 Per Day |
| Day 8+ | $550 Per Day |
We sincerely apologize for any confusion this may have caused. If you require more information, please contact your Hamburg Süd representative with any questions you may have.
With kind regards,
Hamburg Süd
