Increase in Port Dues Import (PAI) - World to South Africa

Maersk wishes to advise our customers that, in order to keep providing you with our global services, Maersk will be increasing the Port Additional/Port Dues Import (PAI) for all containers imported to South Africa. The effective date is from 15/03/2023 until 31/03/23.

We already have a PAI in place to cover the fuel neutrality and operations stabilization levy from TPT to the amount of ZAR 133.

The increased amounts, below, are made up of this ZAR 133, as well as the increase in Destination Handling charges, which is in line with TPT terminal handling increases effective 01/04/23. The new Tariff Charges are effective 1st April 2023 and will be applicable for all units discharging post-midnight 31st March 2023

The revised tariff levels as follows:

* PCD = Price Calculation Date. For non-FMC, PCD refers to the scheduled departure date of the first water leg at the time of booking confirmation for non-spot bookings. For FMC, PCD is last container gate-in date for non-spot bookings.

• The above rates are also subject to other applicable surcharges, including local charges and contingency charges.
• These rates are unaffected by, and do not affect, any tariff notified, published, or filed in accordance with local regulatory requirements.
• For trades subject to the US Shipping Act or the China Maritime Regulations, quotations or surcharges that vary from the Maersk tariff shall not be binding on Maersk unless included in a service contract or service contract amendment that has been filed with the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) or the Shanghai Shipping Exchange, as applicable.

We appreciate your business and look forward to continuing working with you in the future.
