El Comité Documental de BIMCO  adoptó una cláusula estándar destinada a abordar las incertidumbres contractuales que pueden surgir de la Notificación de Acciones del Representante Comercial de los Estados Unidos (USTR) para imponer tarifas a los buques relacionados con China que atraquen en puertos estadounidenses.
