Validity of the commercial release in the Secure Chain

The shipping line can assign a validity date to a release. This is the release expiry date. If the validity date is not provided by the shipping line, the standard (default) applies from the moment of releasing at the terminal.

The table below shows the default validity per terminal.

terminal Default validity of release
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 validity date of the commercial release has expired

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

If you have already prepared the chain fully, it will still be active. Only the inland operator cannot pick up the container and/or submit a pre-notification. When the shipping line sends the commercial release again, the prepared chain is restored automatically and the inland operator can submit the pre-notification.
