Sea Freight Rules & Regulations

SOLAS – Verified Gross Mass
IMO 2020
INCOTERMS® 2020

SOLAS is the International Convention on Safety Of Life At Sea. Recent amendments to this convention will have a fundamental impact on how we have to manage the movement of containerized cargoes within the International Supply Chain.

IMO 2020 is a new International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulation for the use of Low Sulphur Fuel effective Jan 1st, 2020. This regulation is the largest in a series of IMO measures to reduce marine pollution across the entire shipping industry and ultimately achieve a CO2 emission reduction consistent with the Paris Agreement temperature goals. The regulation will see a decrease in the sulfur content in fuel from 3.5% to 0.5% (mass by mass).

Nine years after the last revision, the new Incoterms® 2020 from ICC came into effect on January 1, 2020. The new terms grasp significant changes, regardless of being a buyer or seller, these new terms may be noteworthy to you. Here’s everything you need to know.

Know your HS code

Harmonised System, or HS for short, is an international standardised system of names and numbers. It’s used to classify different freights.

You need the HS code for each individual product in your shipment for customs clearance. In every country, customs use HS to calculate the import duties and charges. Each HS code comes with its own import duties. HS codes usually have 8 characters and include letters and numbers. Some countries add an additional 2 to 4 characters to the HS code.
