Inland Haulage Charges (IHC)

Inland Haulage Charges (IHC) refer to the fees incurred for transporting cargo between a port and an inland location, such as a warehouse or distribution center. These charges cover the cost of moving goods via truck or rail from the port of entry to the final delivery point or vice versa. The cost of IHC depends on factors like distance, mode of transport, and cargo type. Efficient inland haulage ensures timely deliveries, reduces storage fees at ports, and improves overall supply chain efficiency, making it an essential part of international shipping logistics.
