Effective from 20 April until further notice, this PSS will be set in all dry cargoes and will be US$300 per 20' and US$600 per 40' containers.
Furthermore, the ZIM will introduce a freight all kinds (FAK) rate increase from the Turkish port of Mersin (TRMER) to North European ports of Flixborough (GBFLX), Antwerp (BEANR), Rotterdam (NLRTM), Hamburg (DEHAM), Le Havre (FRLEH) and Gydnia (PLGDY).
This FAK rate increase, which will take effect on 1 May, will be applied in all dry van 20' and 40' containers as follows:
ZIM said that Russian trades are excluded and that rates are "unaffected by, and do not affect, any tariff notified, published, or filed in accordance with local regulatory requirements."
