South American Shipping-Brazil International Shipping
Brazil has a total of 37 ports, the main ports are: Santos, Victoria, Rio de Janeiro, Paranagua and St. Louis. The import and export volume is 0.7 billion tons, and the largest port in Brazil is Santos Port, accounting for 1\3 of the country's import and export volume. Manaus Port, located in the middle reaches of the Amazon River, is the largest inland port and can berth 10,000-ton freighters.
There are several issues that must be paid attention to in Brazil's shipping:
documents
1, the freight to be shown on the bill of lading.
The local customs in Brazil require that all costs (including prepaid and on-call costs) and their details must be clearly listed on the bill of lading/the words "Freight as per agreement" are not allowed, and all goods imported into Brazil must pay freight tax.
2, Brazil sea customs clearance does not accept electric bill of lading.
Brazil customs clearance is not accepted electric bill of lading, not only that, sea bill of lading (AWAY BILL ),Duy bill of lading, negotiable bill of lading (to order) is not accepted, only accept the original bill of lading. Brazilian customs have determined that the electric bill of lading is an act of tax evasion. In addition, South American countries are almost prohibited from doing electricity.
3. Pay attention to filling in the bill of lading
(1) The company information on the bill of lading is true and complete.
(2) The address of the consignee/notifier must be in Brazil, and consignees outside Brazil are not accepted
(3) The description of the goods should correctly reflect the goods loaded in the container (including the number of pieces/packages).
(4) Ensure the accuracy of container number and seal number
(5) The weight can only be displayed correctly in the meter system
(6) The goods description department is not allowed to fill in the value statement.
Use the box
1, before shipment in advance to apply for the port of destination exemption period.
Brazilian customs clearance time is generally longer, and shipowners' demurrage at Brazilian ports are very expensive. Therefore, in order to avoid the high demurrage costs of production at the port of destination, it is important to apply to the shipping company in advance of shipment for a free period at the port of destination, which is generally 21-30 days.
2. Use NOR box with caution (cold substitute dry container)
Some shipping companies will provide NOR box (cold substitute dry container) service. Although NOR box will be relatively cheap in sea freight, the exemption period of freezer box in destination port will be much shorter than that of ordinary box, and shipping companies generally do not accept the application of exemption period of freezer box. In addition, the demurrage charge of freezer in Brazil is much higher than that of ordinary boxes. Take CS Shipping Company as an example, freezers are generally free for only 4 days in Brazil, while the demurrage is as high as USD170-260 a day.
