Dear Valued Customer,


Please be advised that HS Code should be provided for all cargoes entering at Australian ports to fulfill the manifest requirements of Port Corporations in Australia.


OOCL respectfully request our customers to provide valid and accurate 6-digit HS Code of each cargo item in the Shipping Instruction at the loading end to ensure smooth production of Shipping Documents as usual.


The requirement comes into effect immediately and becomes mandatory from June 1st, 2016.


For enquiries, please kindly contact our local representatives.


Thank you for your support of OOCL.
