Fumigated containers

Fumigating containers is a regular requirement for almost all organic fiber, handicraft and furniture exports. Since we receive a substantial volume of fumigated containers every week, we would like to explain to you how we handle these containers.

Fumigated containers are classified as DANGEROUS according to the IMDG Code. It is very important that we properly declare these containers to ensure that they are stowed on deck, away from reefers and away from the accommodation of the vessel crew. In order for us to comply with the requirements, our customer service and operations personnel will need certain information to facilitate and ensure proper declaration.

If you require your containers to be fumigated, please be guided by the following procedures which we request you to follow.

UPON BOOKING
- When booking your cargo, please inform our customer service personnel that the container is to be fumigated.
- The following information should be given:
  - Fumigant to be used, e.g. METHYL BROMIDE, PHOSPHINE GAS, etc.
  - Fumigator, telephone number and contact person
UPON FUMIGATION/DELIVERY TO MICT
- Submit the JOB ORDER or FUMIGATION CERTIFICATE with the complete detais, i.e. date, dosage, fumigant, exposure times, etc.
- Ensure that the WARNING LABEL is pasted on the four sides of the container.
- Instruct your trucker to declare the container as fumigated at the gate upon delivery.
- Ensure that your trucker has copies of the job order and fumigation certificate (if available) as these will be asked for at the gate upon delivery.

NOTE:

Furthermore, containers that are ventilated after fumigation are not to be declared as dangerous. Required ventilation time is at least 48 hours. Further, a certificate of ventilation must be submitted upon delivery to give assurance that the container is free from any trace of the fumigant used.

The safety of our vessel, vessel crew and your cargo is our priority. It is therefore very important that we adhere to the safety requirements of the vessel.
