BULLETIN : OCEANFREIGHT NORTH/NORTH EAST ASIA : GENERAL RATE INCREASES 15 JANUARY 2018
Carriers have published their intention to implement a rate increase on 15th January in below quantum. The requisite action from Specific Freight will be to invoice this amount in addition to any tariffs or quotes your company may hold in place preceding this date.
Should you require billing to reflect an “all in” rate please speak directly to your customer service manager to ensure the system billing is changed from 15.01.18 to meet your requirements. Alternatively the system billing will reflect the current tariff rates of container + BAF + the below GRI.

LCL : USD 20.00 per cbm
20 GP : USD 500.00 per teu

Space in North China is already tightening up and in this week we have seen Cosco close bookings for the ETD 12/01 ahead of normal cut-offs time.
Please ensure suppliers are booking as early as possible in these national holiday periods to ensure we have every chance of meeting your expectations on your quoted services.
Should you have any queries on the above subject matter please contact our office direct.
