Antaq to hold public hearing on THC2 in port facilities

Antaq will hold, between June 23 and August 26, public consultation and hearing to gather contributions and improve normative instructions to assess possible misconducts associated with terminal handling charges 2 (THC2) in port facilities, as provided for in article 9 of Antaq resolution No. 72, dated March 30, 2022.

Legal drafts and technical documents are available here.

THC2 is levied on the cargo transfer from the yard pile to the port terminal gate for imported goods.

Content and means of participation 

The Agency will consider only contributions relating to the subject of the public consultation. The inputs may be addressed to ANTAQ until 11:59 pm on August 6, exclusively through the electronic form available at https://www.gov.br/antaq/pt-br.

It will be allowed, exclusively through the email [email protected], upon identification of the participant and within the stipulated period, to attach digital images, such as maps, plans, and photos. The text contributions must be filled in the appropriate fields of the electronic form.

Public Hearing

A public hearing will be held, in person or via teleconferencing, on a day, time, and location to be determined and notified in due course to encourage discussion and address any ambiguities about the normative act.
