VGM Receiving Policy in Venezuela
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.
In line with SOLAS (Safety of Lives at Sea) regulations, all marine terminals in Venezuela are now allowed to use their certified scales to record Verified Gross Mass (VGM) of shipments.
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.
How can I submit my VGM instructions?
Email: VE370-doc@msc.com
Guidelines for submitting your VGM instructions
We encourage customers to submit their Shipper-Verified Gross Mass (VGM) before cargo is delivered. This helps to avoid any unexpected weighing charges being levied against the cargo at the Venezuela port of loading, which will be billed to the shipper of record.
