Dear Valued Logistics Plus Clients,
As a further update, in addition to the War Risk and Emergency Bunker Surcharges, ocean carriers are now implementing a General Rate Increase (GRI) on shipments originating from U.S. ports to or via the following destinations:
Bahrain, Djibouti, Egypt (Ain Sokhna), Eritrea, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Sudan, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Yemen, including inland destinations served via these ports.
Approximate rate increases are as follows (may vary slightly by carrier):
-
USD 500 per 20′ container
-
USD 1,000 per 40′ container
-
USD 1,000 per 45′ container
As always, Logistics Plus will continue to monitor the situation and keep clients informed. These carrier-imposed charges will be passed through at cost, with no additional markup.
Please let us know if you have questions.
