Filing Codes A

The provisions of this rule apply as noted hereunder, for the
calculation of non published rates from a through freight rate of
a container which is either filed as "base freight rate", "all
inclusive" or filed as being "inclusive of" any charges in addition
to the base ocean freight.  This rule applies only on per container
rates.
    
a. For the purposes of this rule the following definitions
    shall apply:
    
  i. Under the term "freight rate", origin/destination arbitraries
      shall be considered as a part of the base ocean fregiht and
      not as an additional charge.
  
 ii. Any rate that is filed as "all inclusive" shall be considered
      as being inclusive ONLY of FAF, DDC, and CAF (if a CAF exists
      from that particular origin or to that particular destination).
  
iii. Any charges other than FAF, DDC and CAF, will not be considered
      as part of a rate filed as "all inclusive" for the purposes of
      this rule.
  
 iv. Any charge other than FAF, DDC and CAF that is to  be included
      as part of this rate, must be specifically named in the rate
      (Example: "inclusive of ORC" or inclusive of Shanghai Port
      Surcharge")
  
  v. If a container rate is filed as base ocean freight, then the
      corresponding FAF, DDC and CAF for such container size rate
      must be added to the base ocean freight in order to calculate
      the freight rate for other container sizes.
  
b. In the absence of specific per container rates for 20',
    40'x9'6", 45'x9'6" and 48'x9'6" containers, the following
    rules will apply:
    
  i. To determine the all inclusive ocean freight for 20' Container,
      multiply the through all inclusive ocean freight of the
      40'x8'6" Container by 80% and round off to the nearest five
      dollars.
    
 ii. To determine the all inclusive ocean freight for 40'x9'6"
      Container, multiply the through all inclusive ocean freight
      of the 40'x8'6" container by 112.5% and round off to the
      nearest five dollars.
    
iii. To determine the all inclusive ocean freight for 45'x9'6"
      Container, multiply the through all inclusive ocean freight
      of the 40'x8'6" container by 126.6% and round off to the
      nearest five dollars.
    
 iv. To determine the all inclusive ocean freight for 48'x9'6"
      Container, multiply the through all inclusive ocean freight
      of the 40'x8'6" container by 144.3% and round off to the
      nearest five dollars.
    
c. When a base ocean resulting freight rate is needed, the resulting
    rate shall be reduced ONLY by the amount of the following extra
    charges:  DDC, FAF, and where applicable, CAF.
     
d. When a freight rate which is filed as being inclusive of other
    charges, in addition to the DDC/FAF/CAF, for the purposes of
    calculating the base ocean freight to which the formulas in this
    rule shall be applied.  The rate shall be reduced ONLY by the
    amount of the following extra charges:  DDC, FAF, and where
    applicable CAF.
