Indicators of falsehoods and inaccuracies will be identified in Verified Gross Mass (VGM) declarations, as well as the possibility of future check weighing, sample weighing and upstream auditing.

Seabridge relies on information submitted by our clients to be accurate in order to submit correct VGM’s. It is important that weight details for cargo are precise across all stages of the supply chain in order to guarantee accurate weight declarations and to avoid compliance penalties. Accurate weight declarations will also help avoid unforeseen delays and charges.

Please contact a Seabridge export specialist today on 1800 727 195 if you have any further questions about the VGM or sea freight.
