We hereby enclose a form for the 4th quarter declarations to be completed and returned to us not later than 20 April 2013.
As from 20 February 1998, all tanker Owners, including Owners of OBO and OO vessels, have to make quarterly declarations in respect of cargoes carried and voyages performed during the specified quarter in order not to jeopardise their P&I cover.
The reason for this increased reporting procedure is to ensure that all Members of the Association are charged an accurate premium for the quarter. Tankers carrying Non-persistent oil and OBOs and OOs carrying dry cargoes during the entire quarter, will enjoy a lower reinsurance cost which will be credi-ted to the Members. Owners of tankers (including OBOs and OOs) trading to the USA and US EEZ have to declare voyages in order to pay the correct surcharge.
Completion and return of the enclosed declaration form is only required for owners of tankers, OBOs and OOs.
You can now fill in the US Voyage Declarations in SCOL – Swedish Club OnLine – instead of sending a manually entered form
Only log on to SCOL and choose the tab “Forms”. Select period and vessel, which will open up the registration form where you can fill in the declaration. When you are finished, it can be sent (“Send Form”) to The Swedish Club. It is also possible to save the form as a draft (“Save as draft”). This will enable you to continue at a later stage.
In the Form page the process of the uploaded forms can also be followed:
– Created – Send form or Save as draft
– Finished – Send form
– Confirmed – The Swedish Club has received the form and taken appropriate action
