An Australian dairy permit issued before 31 August carries two sets of conditions: which one does the certificate answer?Ruth, keep the dated version, but do not trust it on its own either. Greece came off in March, yet the department counts its loss of freedom from mid February. A copy printed in late February showed Greece clean for goods it was already...

Diesel is swinging week to week: which Monday's price does your dray fuel surcharge read?Ask once, in writing. It costs an email, not money. Where a clause does name the day, what I can find reads pickup. The GSA tariff takes each Monday's posting and applies it to pickups from the Wednesday through the following Tuesday, and...

The credit asks for a certificate of origin: does a Mercosur statement on the invoice satisfy it?Chile lost the EUR.1 for Europe in February 2025, so this argument is not new on our side. Cheaper than reprinting the statement: two papers, two jobs. The statement on the invoice is for the customs officer. If the credit only says...

India's duty cut put 5.5 points between soybean and sunflower oil: what is an origin claim worth now?Mariano, from the selling side I never ran that arithmetic. My buyers ask for origin paper, preference or not. The cost was never mine to decline. The cut changes the exposure, not the cost. A preferential claim is the one tested later,...

eUCP lets a refusing bank dispose of electronic records after 30 days: what if one of them is an electronic bill of lading?Karim is right that the box sits. The cost of it sitting is mine. Credits are a small part of my season, but thirty days is not a window an exporter has. Last refusal we took, the grapes were already discharged and on the plug. I called...

Four Asia to Europe strings went back through Suez this month: what on the booking tells me which routing I bought?The vessel does not decide it, the string does. Ask for the service name on the confirmation, then read that service's rotation on the line's schedule: it shows the way round without anyone typing the word canal. Their terms allow any...

An Australian dairy permit issued before 31 August carries two sets of conditions: which one does the certificate answer?Fruit, not dairy, but the same shape. Both sets are live on the one permit, so landing day does not settle it. A permit carrying two sets is not half of each: you pick one column and answer it whole, and the certificate is what picks....

France's invoicing mandate started on 1 September: does it reach a seller outside the EU at all?A buyer changed my document format mid season once. We typed it by hand to the last vessel rather than rebuild anything: you do not touch an invoice while fruit is sailing. The cost is not software. My invoice has to agree with the plant...

Low value parcels into the EU are down hard since 1 July: is anyone seeing it in Asia to Europe air rates?Different hemisphere, same lesson. I buy air out of Santiago for fruit, and another commodity's collapse has never once reached me as a cheaper quote. Prices are made lane by lane. What travels between markets is the aircraft, not the...

New Zealand and India start on 20 October with bilateral cumulation only: whose origin file survives that?Our pool narrowed under us mid season once, and the rebuild was never a rate exercise. It was chasing a supplier declaration for every input, and in a house our size that is the same person who books the reefers. Weeks, not days, and the...

Our terms with China loosened weeks before the first pick: is the start date worth more than the rule?Naledi has moved me. If nothing closes, the timing costs only the saving I decline. And Rajesh's parallel fits: it is the compulsory date that gets parked, not the option. The withdrawn paper is the part I cannot decline. Nobody asks my...

Export proceeds can stay in foreign currency in Brazil from 1 October: what ties the money to the shipment now?Not a banker, and I have not read your resolution. In Chile the money stopped matching the shipment long ago. No obligation to bring proceeds home, none to convert, and as far as I have seen the bank stopped asking which shipment a...

One statement on origin for a whole season of fruit: what counts as identical when the pack changes?Stripped that far mine reads fresh cherries, fresh table grapes, nothing else. That is the bar the text sets: identification in the nomenclature. Where it bites is the sheet it rides on. What gets tested is the description on the document...
