Stevedores Infrastructure Charge and VBS Fee Charges 26/05/21

Effective 1^st July 2021, stevedores will be adjusting their infrastructure charge and vehicle booking fee to recover increased infrastructure cost and landside system investments. This is in order to continue to provide a high level of service for customers.

Charges include:

• Infrastructure Charge at AAT and VICT
• The revised charge is a direct-pass through to recover ongoing costs and will be applicable to full export and import containers
• VBS related fee
• VICT – reintroducing a “stack run in slot (empty)” fee and introducing a “premium slot fee”.  VICT are focused on providing sufficient slots for customers while ensuring consistent Truck Turn Times are maintained for those who have planned their movements in advance.
• AAT – VBS Booking Fee (per slot / per empty / full container)

Due to the increases being imposed on all transport operators, Ligentia unfortunately has no option but to pass this on to customers.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the Ligentia team.
