A. Stevedoring charges are the charges incurred for unloading the goods from ship hold to wharf. These charges are treated as forming part of the freight and are to be added to the value for the purpose of charging duty on imported goods. This contingency arises only when the carrier does not include these charges in the Freight Bill.
