Simplified Electronic Filing of Verified Gross Mass Data for Shippers

~ 1 min Read

The Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention added an extra requirement for shippers in 2016, making it mandatory to electronically provide carriers with the full weight of packed containers before loading them onto a vessel. Failure to file this Verified Gross Mass (VGM) information promptly could result in container detention or refusal at the terminal, additional fees from carriers or costly fines.
