Rules and Regulations Focus on CMA CGM’s policy about economic sanctions As third worldwide shipping group, CMA CGM takes economic sanctions very seriously and has developed a strict internal policy and uses its best efforts to ensure compliance of the Group’s activities with all applicable national and international standards, including but not limited to, those adopted by the United Nations, the European Union, and the United States of America.

This initiative is part of an exemplary, assertive, responsible and sustainable CMA CGM’s policy. An in-house Compliance Desk has been created to perform the supervision of all compliance matters relative to Iran (CMA CGM took the decision to stop shipping cargo to Iran from April 1st, 2013), Cuba, Sudan, Myanmar, North Korea, Syria and any other sanctioned countries.

Before accepting a booking involving one of the sanctioned countries, CMA CGM Group’s employees have to follow booking procedures specially designed to ensure that the contract of carriage do not infringe the rules.

Customers are advised to liaise with their local agent/sales representative in any case involving a shipment to a restricted country.

Additionally, since July 2011, CMA CGM’s policy consists in refusing any booking from any of the entities listed by the U.S Office of Foreign Assets Control on the Special Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (“SDN”) list.

Group’s employees are trained on applicable rules, especially with regards to OFAC’s rules via a mandatory e-learning. They also have the possibility to access all the relevant information, tools and useful links through a dedicated intranet Team Site.

For more information, please contact your local CMA CGM office.
