We have conducted our quarterly review of fuel charges and would like to advise that effective January 1, 2019 the BAF and LSF charges from the United States and Canada to Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands will remain at the current levels:
As previously reported in the News section of our website, please be aware that as from February 1, 2019, all bunker related charges will be replaced by a new Marine Fuel Recovery (MFR) charge. The MFR will always be shown as a separate fee on your invoice.[1]
Please note that with the MFR implementation, your “all-in” rate will not change.
We shall continue to monitor developments on a quarterly cycle and all adjustments will be made following the review period with appropriate notice given to the trade.
[1] Exception may apply due to regulatory reasons. Please contact your local Hapag-Lloyd office for further information.
