According to the American Club, the latest customs threat in Argentina concerns the misdeclaration of shipboard stores, which can lead to fines. In an alert to its members, the American Club said that customs authorities are becoming stricter, particularly regarding the declaration of lube oils, bunkers, chemicals, spare parts, grabs and other items in lists of stores carried onboard vessels, especially in ports such as San Nicolas. Based on information from Pandi Liquidadores S.R.L, the club’s correspondent, ships have been required to declare the lube oil in the sump tank of the main engine, despite previous practice to the contrary.
