On March 13, 2024, the National Agency of Waterway Transportation ("ANTAQ") published ANTAQ Resolution No. 112/2024 (the "Resolution") in the Official Gazette, establishing criteria for identifying responsible agents for additional cargo storage, as well as services and costs arising at port facilities.

A risk matrix attached to the Resolution considers the risk inherent to the activity carried out by each agent, so it must be used to determine the specific case to identify the agent responsible for additional storage, services and costs.

  • Delay in the entry of cargo at the port facility

    Trade and cargo logistics (user) will be responsible when the causes are (i) a truckers' strike; or (ii) problems with road logistics, such as accidents and congestion.
