F Gross weight was 108 kg, the number
on scales. However G
was the chargeable Weight : 110.5 kg because
calculation was made by volume : the airline has divided by 6000 the volume
of the shipment. The result was 110.5, called I
the VOL. WT ( Volume Weight ).
In centimetres, [ 37 x 56 x 32 x 10 boxes / 6000 = 110.5. As cost
per kg was H 157 THB , the total weight charge was 157 X 110.5 = 17,349 THB. If the Gross
Weight had been higher than the VOL.WT, then this Gross Weight would have
been the Chargeable Weight . The volume of the freight is increased by the
leaves of the plants. Using foam boxes instead of cartons, or using smaller
cartons leave more empty spaces in each : the arrangement of potted plants
with various sizes is easier in bigger cartons.
C : FREIGHT COLLECT
means :
Here Total Collect amounts to N 22,256 THB ( Thai Baht ), in which O 17,349 THB
is the cost on a kg basis. Because
Freight is Collect we don't have to pay anything more outside the AWB (
except a few taxes to the Government ) . But if the Freight is Prepaid we
must pay to our freight agent an additional amount of charges at Bangkok
airport, which is not indicated in the AWB.
They don't appear in L and M . We will know this amount within a week
after departure.
J : The Handling charge 2550 THB and the others : 268, 50, 12 and 11 THB are Total Charges Due Agent L : 2891. They include the Phytosanitary certificate or CITES costs.
K MXC and MYC are the Crisis surcharge
per kg and the Fuel surcharge per kg ( 4 + 7 THB ). This amount, along with
the DISB. FEE 800 THB, is the M Total Charge Due Carrier of 2,016 THB paid by our agent to the airline
( the Carrier ).
