In order to meet the costs incurred in respect of ISPS code compliance, P&O Nedlloyd has announced the introduction of a global ‘carrier security charge’ of $6 per container, effective January 1st, 2005
In addition, Origin & Destination Terminal Security Charges will be passed on separately, as and when they are applied to P&O Nedlloyd by terminal operators / port authorities.
Until recently, P&O Nedlloyd has resisted the additional costs from terminals, but, like all other lines, P&O Nedlloyd faces the threat of ships being turned away at ports if the Terminal Security Fee levied by the operator is not paid
