XXI. Navigation Fees

Vessels engaged in foreign trade with other than Canadian ports are subject to navigation fees upon entry. Thus if she is less than 100 tons burden the fee is $1.50. Over that amount the fee is $2.50. Her clearance fee is at the same rate.

In the event that she might have any dutiable merchandise on board she would also be liable under similar conditions to the usual fees for surveyor's services in connection with her customs entries, to wit, $1.50, if less than 100 tons, and $3 if more than 100 tons. Where she carries no dutiable merchandise, however, the fee is a nominal one of sixty-seven cents, which applies, of course, in the case of foreign ballast which is not dutiable.
