Container detention is a fee charged when a container remains unused beyond the agreed period. In English:

"What is demurrage and detention fee?" or "Demurrage and detention charges"

In ocean transportation, the English terms are "demurrage" for container use exceeding scheduled time and "detention" for keeping containers longer than permitted.

The English for "滞箱费" for empty containers kept longer than allowed is "empty container detention charges".

When the containers used in import are returned or released beyond the specified period by the port authority or the service provider, the fee is known in English as "container demurrage and detention charges".

If a container is kept beyond the agreed period, the applicable English expressions are "detention fee" specifically for unused containers and "demurrage charges" for containers that are booked but not handed over. The total fee is typically called "container detention time charges", especially in contexts with time-based billing.
