MSC is introducing a Congestion Surcharge

Due to the congestion in the port of Shuwaikh (Kuwait) generating difficult conditions to operate, MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company S.A. will apply a Congestion Surcharge to maintain the service at the required level.

The Congestion Surcharge will be introduced from any origin in Europe (Scan Baltic / UK / NWC / West Med / Adriatic/ Black Sea / East Med / Greece and Turkey), for any cargo with Bill of Lading date, as from October 10th 2018.
