|U.S. FMC Proposes Significant Changes to the Licensing and Regulation of Ocean Freight Forwarders and | |

|NVOCC’S | |

|Dear AWS Agent,  | |

|The U.S. Federal Maritime Commission has proposed some of the most significant changes since 1998 to its| |

|regulations governing the licensing and regulation of Ocean Transportation Intermediaries (OTIs). | |

|FMC commissioners voted 3-2 in favor of this proposed rulemaking with the Commissioners stressing the | |

|importance of the industry supplying input during the sixty day notice and comment period, which will be| |

|held before the final rule publication. After the comment period, the FMC will likely issue a revised | |

|and final rule and effective date. Comments may be submitted to FMC Secretary Karen Gregory | |

|at secretary@ before July 31, 2013. | |

|The FMC is responsible under the U.S. Shipping Act for the licensing and regulation of ocean freight | |

|forwarders or Non-Vessel-Operating Common Carriers (NVOCCs). | |

|Key Parts of “The Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking” have been highlighted below in a brief summary| |

|of several amendments to the Regulations Governing OTI’s/NVOCC’s regarding Licensing, Financial | |

|Responsibilities, Shipment Documentation, Claims and General Duties. For a more comprehensive look at | |

|all of the proposed changes, please click | |

|on . | |

|OTI licenses and FMC registrations will be issued for two year terms. | |

|The rule also requires registered NVOCCs to submit updated registration forms to renew for sequential | |

|two year terms. This is a significant change from the current OTI regulations, which have no requirement| |

|to renew the NVOCC registration or OTI license once granted. | |

|Renewal process will require licensed OTIs to update their QIs identification and contact information | |

|The proposed license and registration renewal requirement is intended to ensure that information | |

|essential to the Commission's oversight is verified regularly | |

|The amended licensing regulations include specific requirements for the use of agents by OTIs. | |

|The regulations clarify that OTIs are strictly responsible for the acts or omissions of their employees | |

|and agents, wherever they are located. Agents will be required to include the OTI principal's name and | |

|license number on all shipping documents, invoices, and business correspondence issued on behalf of the | |

|OTI. | |

|Increased bond requirements and revises bond forms. | |

|The ocean freight forwarder bond amount increases from US$ 50,000 to US$ 75,000. The licensed NVOCC bond| |

|amount increases from US$ 75,000 to US$ 100,000. Registered NVOCCs outside the USA will be required to | |

|increase their bonds from US$ 150,000 to US$ 200,000. In addition, new procedures for notifying the | |

|Commission of claims against bonds, and payments of claims, will be established. | |

|Again, for a look at a more detailed analysis of the Proposed Rulemaking please visit | |
