| 00-18075 | Global Package Link | Rule | The Postal Service is adopting changes to Global Package Link (GPL) service. Expansion of the service is planned to the European Union (EU) countries as well as expansion to Australia. Rates are being increased 5 percent for existing GPL services with a 15 percent increase to the oversize GPL package service to Japan. There are several new fees that will be added to GPL. There will be a fee schedule for data exceptions. Customers will be charged when they fail to provide usable data needed to process GPL. In addition, there will be a new fee of $250 per hour for providing assistance in establishing necessary data links with GPL, for assistance in updating its manifesting systems, and for providing harmonization services needed to utilize GPL's Customs Preadvisory System. These new fees for service will allow the customer to access expertise quickly and for a reasonable charge thus making it easier for them to use GPL. There will also be a new surcharge of $11 per piece when customers fail to meet the requirement of mailing a minimum of 10,000 packages to any combination of GPL destination countries per year. They will also be required to use the premium service where available. Any existing customers that have been using GPL for over a year will be reviewed and also subject to the surcharge if applicable. | 2000-07-18 | 2000 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/07/18/00-18075/global-package-link | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-07-18/pdf/00-18075.pdf | Postal Service | 410 | The Postal Service is adopting changes to Global Package Link (GPL) service.
