An update for Marine Fuel Recovery (MFR) is available
The container shipping industry is always evolving, and we know that your business operates between different geographical scopes. Therefore, we would like to share the latest global update on our Marine Fuel Recovery (MFR). To give you an insight, MFR is applicable for all trades, and you will find it as a separate surcharge on your invoice and Bill of Lading.
Consolidated Marine Fuel Recovery (MFR) tables are no longer provided as downloadable files. The latest MFR values are continuously available via the Ocean Tariff Rates and Surcharges page and the Surcharge Finder. If a consolidated file is required, please contact your responsible sales representative.
You will be able to see the new MFR values that are effective for sailings from April 1, 2026, reflected in our Surcharge Finder and are valid until further notice. The MFR calculation for some trade relations takes into consideration the updated fuel prices and distances as an effect of the Cape of Good Hope sailings. Please keep in mind that the FAK base rates as well as Security related surcharges, Peak Season surcharges (if applicable) and Terminal Handling Charges (THCs) can be found here. Other local charges and contingency surcharges may apply.
If you should require more information, please contact our teams at your location, who will be glad to guide you based on your individual situation.
