Terms for Spot Booking

Where we refer to “you” in these Spot Terms, we refer to the party entering into these Spot Terms with the Carrier. A reference to “we”, “us” or “our” is a reference to the Carrier, or to any affiliate or group company of the Carrier who provides services from time to time under these Terms. A reference to “the Spot Terms”, “the Terms” or “these Terms” is a reference to these Spot Terms.

1. Application of terms

1.1 These terms govern bookings made between you and us, which are expressly subject to the Spot Terms, or are otherwise subject to the Maersk spot rate. We may update, revise and change these Spot Terms at any time. The Spot Terms current at the time of booking shall apply.  

1.2 The carriage of any goods in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the Terms for Carriage, which are available at: https://terms.maersk.com/carriage. The definitions in the Terms for Carriage are hereby adopted and shall have the same meaning unless otherwise specified. The parties to these Spot Terms shall be further identified and recorded in the booking confirmation and/or bill of lading. The Terms for Carriage shall be incorporated into these Terms, and these Terms shall be incorporated into the Terms for Carriage. To the extent required, these Terms shall logically amend, vary and supplement the Terms for Carriage, but the validity and enforceability of the other provisions of the Terms for Carriage shall remain in full force and shall not be affected.     

1.3 The additional clauses set out in Schedule 1 of these Terms shall apply to any shipments moved under regulated lanes that are subject to the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission regulations (”FMC”). In such cases, where there is conflict between Schedule 1 and the Spot Terms, Schedule 1 shall prevail.

1.4 By placing a booking via any Maersk APIs, or on any Maersk online booking platform or any approved third party platforms and irrespective of whether the booking is placed or the offer is requested through an agent or not, you acknowledge, confirm and accept to be bound by these Spot Terms which are available at: https://terms.maersk.com/terms-spot-booking and the API License Terms available at https://terms.maersk.com/api-license-terms.

1.5 It is a condition that anyone making a spot booking under these Spot Terms agrees and accepts that it will be deemed a“Merchant”as defined in the Terms for Carriage and as such will be responsible for all the obligations and liabilities of the shipper, whether disclosed or not. Any subsequent nomination of a shipper or other party in relation to the booking shall be subject to our discretionary acceptance. In nominating a shipper or other party in relation to the booking the nominating party warrants and represents that it has authority to legally bind the nominated shipper or other party relating to the booking, as applicable and will assume full liability and shall indemnify us for any and all losses suffered or cost incurred as a consequence of the absence of such authority.

1.6 You warrant that no shipment booked by you includes refrigerated goods, or hazardous goods, and that all information provided to us is complete and accurate.

2. Rates and charges

2.1 After submitting a booking request and receiving a booking confirmation (“Booking Confirmation”) for a spot booking the rates as confirmed by us shall not be subject to change, other than as set out below.

2.2 The rates quoted in the Booking Confirmation are calculated and based on the rates, charges, surcharges, fees, adjustment factors (including local ones), rules, exceptions, exclusions and exchange rates applicable to the requested services pursuant to our applicable Tariff at the time of booking. Rates appearing at the time of Booking Confirmation may be subject to commodity specific surcharges or other situational surcharges which are available here.

2.3 Where in the Booking Confirmation: (i) a rate is reflected in a currency other than USD, and/or (ii) a fee, charge or other amount is reflected in a currency other than the currency it is charged in (i.e. local currency), you accept that the amount invoiced may vary due to currency fluctuations. Any services not covered under the scope of Spot Terms shall be subject to additional cost payable by you for such additional services.  

Shipping instructions

2.4 The rates provided in the Booking Confirmation are conditional upon you uploading shipping instructions to us in accordance with the instructions set out in the Booking Confirmation. If the shipping instructions are not submitted in time or submitted in any other manner, we reserves the right to charge you additional or different charges to those agreed.

Cargo weight

2.5 Rates are quoted on the basis of the net cargo weight as provided and indicated by you in the booking request. In the event the actual net cargo weight is different from the indicated net cargo weight when cargo is tendered, then you shall pay a different rate (if applicable) based on the actual cargo weight as determined by us at that time. We also reserve the right to cancel such booking (without any further liability) notwithstanding any issuance of Booking Confirmation, transport documents or receipt of the Goods, if the cargo weight may exceed any regulatory or other restrictions in any applicable country location.

Amendments

2.6 All changes requested by you after Booking Confirmation has been issued are subject to and conditional upon: (i) available space, (ii) our approval. Any requests for changes will be considered as acceptance of any revised charges and you will be deemed to have accepted the same by proceeding with the amended booking.

Default by you

2.7 In the event the Goods are not loaded and shipped as booked due to your default then we reserve the right to re-rate and calculate and apply revised rates and charges (including Amendment Fee) for the shipment, subject to space and equipment. You acknowledge and accept that in the event we have space availability then we will endeavour to load the Goods applying revised rates and charges current at the time. In the event of space constraints then we reserve the right to cancel the booking and you will then be required to empty the container at your cost, time and expense.

Taxes

2.8 The Charges/fees are exclusive of all taxes, duties and/or levies payable in respect of or in connection with the Services, such as Withholding Tax (“WHT”), Value Added Tax (”VAT”), Goods and Services Tax (”GST”) or any other similar tax where appropriate.

5. Freetime Extension

5.1 If you select the Freetime Extension option at the time of booking then this additional freetime will apply to your standard freetime allowance as applicable and purchased.

If you opt for “Rollable”, then we may “roll” your cargo onto a later sailing than the sailing anticipated in the initial Booking Confirmation. Your cargo may be “rolled” at any stage during the carriage, including at the loadport or any transhipment port. The “Rollable” option is typically more appropriate for non-time sensitive cargoes.

9.2 If we exercise our right to “roll” your cargo:

a) we will not be held to any Load as Booked promise, or any other delivery or loading promise under any clause of these Spot Terms, including Clause 7.1; and

b) you shall be entitled to a Rollable Compensation Fee (the “Rollable Compensation Fee”).

The Rollable Compensation Fee is visible to you during the booking journey, is available in the FAQs on our website (see: here), and we will be happy to advise you of the same should you contact us.
