延迟转运条款及细则

By using the Delay in Transit or any portion thereof, the Customer agrees to be bound by the following terms and conditions (the “Delay in Transit Terms”).

The Customer may, at the time of requesting a quotation, subscribe to the Delay in Transit for “Eligible Shipments” (as defined below), subject to the Delay in Transit Terms. The Customer shall at all times comply with the Delay in Transit Terms as well as all other applicable terms and conditions, including the OOCL Global Rule Tariff set at the carrier’s prevailing governing tariffs on www.oocl.com, and terms and conditions governing the FreightSmart services. In this regard, the Delay in Transit Terms shall incorporate the aforesaid FreightSmart Terms and Conditions. In case of any conflict between the Delay in Transit Terms and the FreightSmart Terms and Conditions, the Delay in Transit Terms shall prevail. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms shall have the same meanings as set out in the applicable terms and conditions.

Eligible Shipments

For shipments to be eligible for the Delay in Transit (“Eligible Shipments”), the following conditions shall be met:

• The Customer has subscribed to the Delay in Transit and agreed to pay all fees associated with the use of the Delay in Transit; and
• The Customer undertakes that the Goods for shipment are not:
  • Dangerous cargo; or
  • Cargo requiring special equipment and/or special conditions of carriage; or
  • Personal effects, hazardous goods, or goods prohibited, restricted, or controlled by the local authority or the OOCL tariff.

The use and provision of the Delay in Transit shall be subject to the terms of OOCL Rule Tariff E-31 (available in Rule Tariff Search), which are expressly and fully incorporated in these Delay in Transit Terms.

Scope of the Services

After the Customer has selected for Delay in Transit in the E-Spot order, the FreightSmart team will revert to the Customer on possible connection, subject to operational feasibility and space availability checking after booking submission.

In-Transit Demurrage (IDM) Charges:

Quotation on FreightSmart E-Spot order includes an upfront Delay in Transit basic handling fee, which applies regardless of the number of days requested for the shipment to stay in the transshipment port. In addition to the Delay in Transit basic handling fees, In-Transit Demurrage (IDM) charges will be charged and calculated based on the duration of cargo stay at the transshipment port which shall include any supplementary charges, including but not limited to storage rent fee, reimbursement of all costs and losses incurred, which shall include but not limited to re-nomination, lift on/off, shifting, as will be communicated to the customer via email. These IDM charges are separate from the above-mentioned Delay in Transit basic handling fee included in the E-Spot Order. Execution of the Delay in Transit service is contingent upon the customer’s confirmation of the charges and the updated connecting leg details.

Payment Terms

Unless advised otherwise by OOCL, the Delay in Transit charges are due and payable together with the Ocean Freight as stated in the invoice.

Compliance with Laws and Requirements

The Customer guarantees compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations relevant to the Delay in Transit.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Customer agrees that the Customer will be liable for defending, indemnifying, and holding harmless OOCL and all Related Parties from all losses due to or arising out of any breach of the Delay in Transit Terms and/or the Customer’s failure to comply with any requirements, procedures, policies, laws or regulations related to the Delay in Transit services.
