CMA CGM has announced the implementation of a Rate Restoration Initiative (RRI) applicable to cargo moving from North Europe to the Canada East Coast and related inland destinations.
The Rate Restoration Initiative (RRI01) will take effect from 10 February 2026 and will apply to tariff and service contract rates on all cargo falling under the scope of the adjustment.
The surcharge will apply to shipments moving from or via all ports in North Europe, including North France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Scandinavia, Poland, the Baltic region and North Spain ports of Bilbao and Gijon. Portugal and Vigo are excluded from the scope. The destination covers Canada East Coast ports and all inland points reached via those ports.
Under the initiative, the rate increase is set at USD 150 per 20-foot container for dry and reefer cargo, and USD 300 per 40-foot, 40-foot high cube and 45-foot containers for dry and reefer cargo. Out-of-gauge cargo is excluded from the adjustment.
CMA CGM said the RRI is being introduced as part of its ongoing tariff management for the trade lane.
