Validity of a Commercial Release in the Secure Chain

The carrier can assign an expiry date to a release. This is the release expiry date. If the expiry date is not provided by the carrier, the default applies from the moment of releasing at the terminals.

The table below shows the default validity per terminal.

Terminal Default release validity
ECTDelta 45 days
Euromax 45 days
HPD2 30 days
RWG 30 days
APMII 30 days
Matrans 40 days
RST 30 days full / 20 days empty

The expiry date of the commercial release has expired

Without a commercial release, the container cannot be collected from the terminal. If the expiry date has expired, contact your carrier for a new commercial release or to extend the commercial release.

If you have already fully prepared the chain, it is still active. Only the inland operator cannot take the container out and/or submit a pre-notification. When the carrier resends the commercial release, the prepared chain is automatically restored and the inland operator can submit the pre-notification.
