ECS Adjustment Oman and Middle East Red Sea to World

We would like to inform you of changes to the Emergency Contingency Surcharges (ECS). We will implement new ECS levels from Oman (excluding Sohar) and Middle East Red Sea ports (Jordan, Jeddah, and King Abdullah), effective Price Calculation Date (PCD) 6th March (for Non-FMC trades). For FMC-regulated countries (United States, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Taiwan, and Colombia), a 30-day notice period will apply. For Vietnam, a 15-day notice period will apply.

The advisory also covers both import and export intra-regional (Indian Sub-Continent and Middle East) flows. You can see the changes to the ECS surcharge on the table published below. Our Rate Announcements page is also updated with this advisory.

All surcharge changes are subject to any required regulatory approvals and notice periods, after which the surcharge will apply. You will see any relevant surcharges on your latest invoices, and we will keep you updated of any further changes.

If you have any further questions, please contact your local Maersk office or Maersk representative. They are standing by to help. Thank you for your understanding during this time. We remain committed to supporting you and your business with your supply chain needs.
