TGS Baltic represented Forward Tranzit OÜ in a dispute concerning the transfer to the customer of a tariff increase for rail freight forwarding services caused by sanctions resulting from the Russian-Ukrainian war.

Blue Trading 007 SIA initially accepted the new tariff notified by the freight forwarder, Forward Tranzit, and paid its invoices on that basis, but later suddenly began to contest the change in the tariff and brought unfounded claims against the defendant.

The dispute concerns the novel situation of how the increase in Operail's tariff for the service caused by the sanctions is shared between freight forwarders and their customers.
