Detention, Demurrage and Storage charges in Nicaragua
What is detention?
Detention is the charge applicable, after the free time expires, for the use of the carrier’s full container inside the marine terminal, railroad facilities, container yard, or shipper´s facility. This charge can also apply while the container is undergoing customs inspections, or while the cargo inside the container is being reworked for safety reasons.
What is demurrage?
Demurrage is the charge applicable, after the free time for import container expires.
In case of a demurrage dispute, email ni623-cobranza@msc.com (email subject: Dispute + BL number + Invoice Number), describing the reasons for your dispute.
What are storage charges?
A storage charge is applicable, after the free time expires, for containers left inside the container terminal or customs warehouse. Client pays for storages charges directly to the terminal.

- For immediate release, payment must be submitted via wire transfer or ACH.

What is VGM?
Verified Gross Mass or VGM refers to the exact, verified weight of a packed container. For safety reasons, vessel operators can only load a container if its weight has been verified.
What do I need to include in my VGM instructions?
You must include the following on all VGM instructions:
- Booking or Bill of Lading (BL) number
- Container number
- VGM + weight measurement unit (lbs. or kgs.)
- Responsible party name Digital signature of the authorised signatory in all CAPITAL LETTERS.
- myMSC (Free of charge)
Guidelines for submitting your VGM instructions
- We encourage customers to submit their Verified Gross Mass (VGM) before cargo is delivered at port (48 hours before vessel arrival). This helps to avoid any unexpected weighing charges being levied against the cargo at the port of loading, which will be billed to the shipper of record.
- Any shipper of record-signed VGM will override any VGM derived at or by the terminal.
MSC admin fees and costs
- Manual VGM Submission Fee: 25 USD per container.
- Late VGM Submission Fee: 25 USD per container.
- VGM Misdeclaration Fee: 300 USD per misdeclaration, per container.
