Por lo que tengo entendido en la jerga naviera se utiliza esta expresión cuando no se han pagado los derechos de una determinada mercadería y esta es sacada del barco y dejada en un almacén por el cual debe pagar diariamente.
Este es el contexto: "Debido a la restricción de importación de XXX el producto cayó a piso y tuvo que pagarse los siguientes gastos:...."

Olá Soledad, "caer a piso" se refiere cuando un container queda en el puerto de desembarque y no se permite su desconsolidación debido a diversos inconvenientes, como falta de documentos por ejemplo....entonces el contenedor queda ahi hasta que esto se resuelva y debe pagar una tarifa extra por cada dia que pasa.

Note from asker:
| Douglas thank you very much for your help. This time I selected another answer just because it is close to the maritime trade language. I liked your suggestions because they also indicated what I wanted to express. Thanks a lot!!! |
