31 Jul 2015 / Finland, all ports
Based on the Finnish Ministry of Transport and Communication's maritime strategy, a final and lawful decision on the new temporary fairway due law applicable to cruise vessels for the period 2015-2017 has been announced. The new unit cost will be 0,911 x NRT/call (previously 1,045 x NRT/call). The maximum fairway due will be 22 250 �/call (previously 44 500 �/call). Tonnage dues will be eliminated (previously 0,1 x NRT, paid only on first call of the year). The financial impact on cruise lines, especially on those who have several calls during a season, is considerable. NEW FAIRWAY DUE EXAMPLE CALCULATION: 1. Cruise Ship X, NRT 10 000, 10 calls to Finland during a season ----------- Fairway due 2014: (1,045 x 10 000) x 10 = 100 450 � Tonnage Due 2014 (paid only on first call/year): 0,1 x 10 000 = 1000 � 2014 TOTAL 101 450 � Fairway due 2015: (0,911 x 10 000) x 10 = 91 110 � Tonnage Due 2015 (eliminated): 0 � 2015 TOTAL 91 110 � 2.
