    Port of Auckland in New Zealand is the latest of a number of container shipping hubs to be hit by congestion surcharges.

    MSC  reported 10-13 days' delay in berthing at Auckland harbour and a lack of dockworkers made the situation so bad that a congestion surcharge will be imposed.

     

    MSC will impose a CONGESTION surcharge of us $300 / TEU on all exports from Europe, Turkey and Israel to Auckland Port, New Zealand from the Date of bill of Lading on November 9, 2020.

     

    In addition, from the same day, the peak season Surcharge (PSS) will be charged at US $300 / TEU for all shipments from mainland China/Hong Kong/Taiwan, Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia to Auckland Port.

     

    The MSC action follows months of crisis at the North Island Port, caused in part by a stronger-than-expected peak season and a sudden contraction in demand at the start of the pandemic that has disrupted many ports around the world.
