International container shipping prices by sea – Additional fees
Firstly, there are additional ocean freight charges: These fees are added to the freight rates of each shipping line. The purpose of these surcharges is to compensate for additional costs incurred by the shipping lines or revenue reductions due to specific reasons such as fuel price changes, document issuance costs, or port cargo handling.
These surcharges are typically variable and not fixed. When calculating total costs, cargo owners need to pay attention to avoid missing any surcharges applied by the shipping lines on the transport routes.
