Tally and inspection service involves the physical counting of each cargo unit during loading or unloading, as well as a detailed examination of its condition. This process ensures that all units — such as bags, boxes, pallets — are accurately recorded, along with their markings and packaging status.
Why Is It Important?
Accurate tallying and inspection reveal any discrepancies between the documented and actual quantity of cargo. It helps prevent shortages, overloading, or damaged packaging. Such issues, if not detected in time, can lead to insurance claims, disputes or financial losses. Conducting this service through an independent surveyor provides transparency and impartiality among all parties.
