Ecuador: Still disagreement on collection of container fees

Core Tip: Complaints are still coming in about the payment - started last July - of a tariff to exporters and importers who use the container yards in the Port of Guayaquil.
Complaints are still coming in about the payment - started last July - of a tariff to exporters and importers who use the container yards in the Port of Guayaquil. The fee for these spaces is a result of the modification of a municipal ordinance that obliges the container yard to be in service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
 
Meanwhile, exporters say that despite a provision of the Ministry of Transportation and Public Works (MTOP) on a court order to suspend the rate, courtyards continue to charge.
 
Eduardo Ledesma, from the Association of Banana Exporters, assured that the tariff would already be included in the export and import freight called handling.
 
But Juan Jurado, manager of the Association of Containers Patios, recalled that they are not regulated by the MTOP and that handling is not included in this collection, but other values for the “marked imbalance” between exports and imports.
 
Ecuadortimes.net reports on Ledesma saying that today a court hearing would be held for the fee, which would be suspended to allow a period of 15 days for all parties to reach an agreement. There is talk of a ‘rational’ charge of between $ 6 and $ 8 per container.
