A Verified Gross Mass (VGM) is a new requirement from The International Maritime Organization (IMO) in an effort to reduce damages to vessels and major hazards. The VGM requires the declaration of a packed container gross weight before loading on board vessels by a cut-off date.

To make it easy to declare VGM, Shippabo provides you with a VGM declaration form right within our platform.
