Tariff Data Systems, as required by the FMC, has made provisions within Tariff Link™ for public access. TDS, however, does not compromise our client's confidentiality. Public access users must be assigned a login and password granting admittance to the tariff management system. TDS endeavors to ensure the security and privacy of our customers. Our primary goal is to provide the most comprehensive tariff publishing service available while maintaining the integrity our clients have come to rely on.


PUBLIC ACCESS
OSRA Regulations:
The OCEAN SHIPPING REFORM ACT (OSRA) of 1998 states that; except for exempt commodities, common carriers and conferences shall maintain an automated tariff system showing all of their rates, terms and charges. These tariffs shall be made available electronically to any person through appropriate access from remote locations and are subject to inspection by the FMC. A reasonable charge may be assessed for such access (except for the FMC). More information and the full text of the bill are available at the Library of Congress. A complete listing of Carriers, Ocean Transportation Intermediaries (O.T.I), Organization numbers and location of tariffs are available at www.fmc.gov - TDS suggests that you confirm that Tariff Data Systems, Inc. in fact, publishes the tariff that you are inquiring about.
