dock fee
Short and sweet
Example sentence:
Paying a yearly $100 per dock fee for the "privilege" of keeping the docks.
16 hrs
port charges
Google hits: 4570 for dock fee, 7130 for docking fee, 18k for port fee, 160k for port charge, 321k for port charges. A valid argument can be made that many occurrences of 'port charges' are about cruise passengers being charged extra by cruise lines, but that's almost beside the point.
