We would like to remind you once again that,
although it is mentioned in the Operation Manual as well,
unlike US24H rule, House B/L must be filed by NVOCCs only and a carrier can not file on their behalf.
This means all NVOCCs at origins must be aware of it.
In order to have them to be aware, we would like to ask for your favor.
The attached spreadsheet shows all NVOCC shipments came into Japan (either POD or T/S : JP)
for the recent 3 months, and we would like you to make them to be aware of House B/L filing for JP24H rule.
Please contact your customer and check
whether they are aware of the rule implementation.
whether they are ready to complete the things written in “Preparation for NVOCCs”
in the attached document before the rule will start.
For Europe customers, we would like to ask KEU London to distribute the message to Europe agents.
If House B/L filing wouldn’t be done properly,
cargo would not be able to be discharged, penalty would be imposed,
and we, carrier would suffer from unnecessary cost of rehandling.
We would highly appreciate your kind cooperation.
