Foreign shipping lines have irrationally imposed several fees and created headaches for domestic exporters, an inspection team has concluded.
The Vietnam Marine Administration has reported the findings to the Transport Ministry.
The inspection team studied the practices of 10 foreign shipping lines – MSC, OOCL, CMA - CGM, Hapag - Lloyd, ONE, Evergreen, HMM, Maersk Lines and Yangming – between March and May after they rampantly increased freights and surcharges.
