Thank you for your interest in our international shipping program. This letter will provide very important information to help you understand and expedite World Medical Relief’s (WMR) application process.

3.There must be a contact person who is responsible for working with our personnel including making arrangements for the shipment.

Once the completed application is received our Distribution Committee will review it. You will be notified of the approval or denial. The Director of International Programs will arrange with your contact person for the details and date of shipment.

The following list identifies the various costs associated with the shipment:

1. WMR’s handling fee, which is identified on the last page of this package. If your

application is approved, it must be paid prior to the shipment.

2.The shipping company’s fee. You or your contact person will be responsible for paying this fee directly to the shipping company. WMR will not be involved in that transaction.

3. A charge of $250 per week may be assessed if we are required to hold the container until an inspector approves the shipment. 4. A $100 packing fee may be assessed if we have to repack the pallet/gaylord boxes.

We look forward to possibly working with your organization and we hope that these guidelines assist you in completing the application. If you have any questions please give us a call.
