Why is notice so important on Military/DoD Claims?Notice is a very important part of the claims process for all damage or loss claims on Government Bill of Lading, DoD/Military shipments. If you do not follow the notice rules, your claim could be denied. ·180 Day Notification Timeframe: Written notification of Loss and/or Damages must be submitted to the Carrier within 180 days from the date of delivery. Items not timely notified may be subject to denial. You may file notice at the time of delivery on the destination paperwork, including the DD Form 1850. You may use the reverse side of this form, the DD Form 1850R, and note loss/damage within 180 days of delivery by sending this form to the TSP/carrier. You may also provide notice to the TSP/Carrier by electronic mail or facsimile. Damage AFTER Delivery (reverse side of Damage AT Delivery) may be scanned/emailed, faxed or mailed to the carrier within 180 days from the date of delivery. It is always a good idea to keep the transaction receipt for verification of timeliness. Again, you may also file notice with the TSP/Carrier via electronic mail or facsimile. When you file notice, please note relevant information including: Inventory number, item name and a description of the damage or that the item is missing. You may also submit your Notification of Loss and/or Damages via the www.move.mil website within 180 days from the date of delivery. If you have issues with the DPS system, a system operated by the DoD, we encourage you to complete a DPS Helpdesk ticket. If you are at the end of your 180 day notice window, please contact the TSP so you can provide notice of loss/damage through another method.◦ While notice of loss and/or damage must be received via the methods descibed above, a DoD claim may be filed at any point up to nine months after delivery to be covered under FRV rules. Additional rules governing such filing may be found on the move.mil.com website or thorugh your local Military Claims Office.

What if my Military Unaccompanied Baggage (UB) shipment is delayed?Regarding unaccompanied baggage shipments, it is important to note that the claim filing requirements for UB shipments picked up after 15 May 2020 are based solely on actual expenses incurred. All items claimed must be supported by paid and dated receipts. The per-diem rates do not apply. All expenses must be related to items tendered to the carrier for transport and listed on the Descriptive Inventory. Important Note: The TSP only compensates a customer for inconvenience suffered due to TSP delay. A delayed shipment can result from things outside of the TSP's control (e.g. held in Air Mobility Command too long, etc.). If AMC holds a shipment too long and this causes the delay, inconvenience amounts will not be allowed. A full analysis and determination will be made once you file your claim. Any lodging or like expenses must be approved in advance. A notice of possible delay does not mean that a delay will in fact occur. You should not purchase items in anticipation of delay, but only after the Required Delivery Date has passed. All items purchased after the required delivery date are subject to salvage by the TSP when the shipment is delivered (meaning the TSP can take the items when the shipment ultimately arrives). The TSP reserves the right to salvage all items reimbursed. UB shipments do not qualify for receipt free per-diem claims.
