MSC prefers to receive a Shipper-Verified Gross Mass (VGM) before cargo is delivered. This helps to avoid any unexpected weighing charges being levied against the cargo at the SWE 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.

For truck delivery, the ultimate deadline for VGM submission will be 12:00 noon local time on the day of the cargo cut-off. 

There are currently no SWE terminals with a “NO VGM – No GATE” policy. 

All rail shipments must have the VGM submitted within 24 hours of the container gating in at the origin rail ramp, to avoid any extra fees levied by the terminal for weighing services. Late gates will only be considered for approval when a VGM is submitted by the Shipper of Record before 12:00 noon, local time, on the day of the cargo cut-off. 

Manual VGM Submission Fee (applies to email, fax, and inclusion on standard shipping instructions): 500 SEK per container. 

Late VGM Submission Fee: 500 SEK per container.
