S.-Israeli attack on Iran and the resulting geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East, according to an advisory opinion released by the regulator on Wednesday, 11 Martha.
The recommendation was issued after a meeting between the State Duma and stakeholders in the export-import trade, where the latter complained about the multiple additional fees charged by shippers or their agents."In the interests of ensuring transparency, fairness, and predictability in the EXIM logistics ecosystem, all shipping lines, carriers, and their agents are hereby advised to refrain from predatory, opaque, and opportunistic pricing practices, including the levying of exorbitant fees, abusing the prevailing geopolitical issue," the advisory said.
The regulator also asked all operators to clearly communicate all applicable fees to exporters and importers in order to avoid disputes with the trading ecosystem.
