Implementation of Emergency Operational cost recovery Surcharge (OCE/OCR) for the scope of World to/from Pakistan

At Maersk, we are committed to providing you with the highest level of service as well as relevant information you need to make important decisions about your supply chain.

In light of the recent developments that are impacting the movement of cargo between India and Pakistan. There have been restrictions on trade and marine traffic between the two countries. These restrictions are constantly evolving and as per the latest developments, the current updates on the trade restrictions include:

Pakistan: Indian exports and imports, remaining onboard (RoB), transiting through ports in Pakistan are allowed

India: Pakistan imports transiting through ports in India are allowed while Pakistan exports transiting through ports in India are not allowed

This has impacted our network and overall operations. To ensure we continue providing a high level of service we have made changes to our network and operations.

This has necessitated implementing an Emergency Operational Cost Recovery Surcharge

• Emergency Operational Cost Recovery Exports (OCE)
• Emergency Operational Cost Recovery Imports (OCR)

This will be applicable on all contract shipments to and from Pakistan.

Non-regulated countries 21-May-25
