Colombia port tonnage fee sparks trade group, ministry opposition
El EspectadorLO·CO·about 24 hours ago
Fedetranscarga, a Colombian freight industry association, has formally requested the repeal of a transport tariff decree affecting the port of Buenaventura, arguing it will raise logistics costs. The measure's fate is uncertain as authorities have not yet responded. If implemented, it could raise import/export costs through Colombia's main Pacific port, affecting trade flows.
