Maersk has announced an adjustment to the Peak Season Surcharge (PSS) for shipments from Far East Asia to the Mediterranean (E2W - FEA to MED).
Effective from 15 July 2025 (Price Calculation Date - PCD), the new surcharge rates will apply as follows:
Updated PSS Rates (USD per container):
- 20ft Dry: $250
- 40ft Dry: $500
- 20ft Reefer: $250
- 40ft Reefer / 45ft Dry: $500
This adjustment follows a previous rate of $500 for 20ft containers and $1,000 for 40ft, and reflects Maersk’s ongoing efforts to optimize pricing during peak season while maintaining reliable service levels.
The surcharge applies where contractually relevant and will appear on invoices based on the shipment's price calculation date.
