Common use of CROSS BORDER SHIPMENTS Clause in Contracts

CROSS BORDER SHIPMENTS. Special rules and requirements apply to shipments that must cross the borders between the United States and Canada or Mexico. Additional time should be allowed for us and our transportation providers to process shipping information on cross-border shipments. The rail transportation providers assess additional charges for shipments that do not comply with Customs requirements or that must be set-off from the train in transit due to inspection, paperwork or other Customs-related issues. It is your responsibility to become aware of and comply with applicable customs and import, export and transportation laws, rules, practices and regulations of the governmental authorities of the countries involved in a shipment; to complete all required documentation; and to apply and pay for all licenses, permits or authorities required by governmental authorities to conduct the business and transportation contemplated by you. By tendering freight to us, customers will be conclusively presumed to agree to cooperate and to require the beneficial cargo owners, consignors and consignees to cooperate reasonably with each other, we and the underlying transportation providers in defending against claims or proceedings by governmental authorities alleging violations of customs, import, export, border crossing, transportation or related laws or regulations or breach of customs bond conditions. Such cooperation will include investigating the allegations; searching for and providing relevant shipping, customs and other documents; obtaining signatures for applicable customs and other documents; providing sworn affidavits relating to the movement of cargo and equipment and similar matters; and, if required, providing witnesses to testify at legal proceedings. For intermodal shipments, we and the underlying rail transportation provider will hold shipments at the origin ramp or at intermediate ramps or may prevent the shipment from entering the terminal gate if customs information and other documentation are not provided at the time that the container or trailer arrives at the origin terminal. The customer will be responsible for all origin storage charges, equipment per diem use charges and other costs until complete and accurate documentation is received. You must meet any established deadlines for such documentation in order to meet the train cut-off time and be transported in accordance with the anticipated schedule. Your customer solutions team is available to provide information about documentation requirements, the responsibilities of the various entities involved in the transportation and applicable deadlines for shipment documentation. There will be delays if the Customs agency in Mexico, Canada or the United States decides to inspect a shipment. The customer is responsible for all drayage, loading and unloading charges; customs brokerage costs; filing costs; and other costs associated with the government inspections or documentation requirements with respect to cross-border shipments. For more information, you should review the applicable Intermodal Circulars (please see Section 1.5 for website addresses for such circulars) and contact your customer solutions team.
