Key Definitions
- Demurrage
- Charges for cargo occupying space at the port/terminal beyond the allowed free time. Applies to import containers sitting at the port before collection.
- Detention
- Charges for holding a shipping line's container outside the port beyond the allowed free time. Applies after the container has been collected but not returned empty.
- Combined
- Some carriers merge both demurrage and detention into a single tariff.
- Free Days
- The number of days the shipping line allows before charges begin. Typically 3-7 days for demurrage and 4-7 days for detention.
