Except as otherwise provided, all cargo moving under this
tariff is subject to origin receiving charges as specified
below.
1.The origin receiving charge applies in addition to the
minimum Bill of Lading charge specified in Rule 6.
2.Except as otherwise provided, the following is included in
the origin receiving charge after the cargo has been
received by the carrier at carrier's terminal or vessel
berth:
- Loading the cargo onto the vessel;
- Wharfage assessed by the port or applicable terminal
tariffs.
3.Except as otherwise provided, the following services
are not included in the origin receiving charge:
- Any charges prior to cargo receipt by carrier;
- Any unloading charge from the shipper's, or shipper's
agent's, delivering carrier including but not limited
to:
- Rail equipment unloading charges for unpacking
cargo from rail cars or rail trailer equipment;
- Charges for unloading cargo from an inland

4.The origin receiving charge shall be prepaid, except where
freight is billed collect, the origin receiving charge may
be billed collect and collected in U.S. dollars or its
equivalent in local currency at carrier's option.
5.Each commodity description contained on a Bill of Lading
is subject to a minimum origin receiving charge based on
one revenue ton. In the event that both Hazardous (HAZ)
and Non-hazardous (NHZ) cargo are shipped under the same
commodity description, each cargo type tariff line item
will be subject to a minimum of one revenue ton per Bill
of Lading.
6.Origin receiving charges expressed on a rate basis apply
on the same rate basis as cargo is freighted.
- When cargo is freighted on a rate basis for which there
is no equivalent in the origin receiving charge, then:
- if cargo is freighted on an EA or per container basis
(PC,AC,DF,FB,FR,GC,HH,IN,OT,PL,RF,TK,TL,or VR) then
assess the origin receiving charge on the basis of
1000 kgs.
- if cargo is freighted on an AV, LS or MBM basis, then
assess the origin receiving charge on the basis of
1000 kgs or 1 cubic meter whichever produces the
greater charge.
7.When cargo moves under a rate that is subject to a minimum
quantity requirement, the same minimum applies to the
origin receiving charges expressed on that rate basis.
8.Where there is no origin receiving charge specified (n/a),
wharfage, handling and terminal charges, if any, apply as
per origin port terminal tariff, are outside of carrier's
control, and are not covered by the charges in this
tariff.
Exceptions:
The receiving charge does not apply to cotton item
52-1000-0000. Please refer to the specific origin
receiving charges in that item.
