Ocean carrier Maersk has announced revisions to its peak season surcharge covering dry and reefer container movements from the Indian Subcontinent and Middle East to North America.

Danish shipping line A.P. Moller - Maersk has announced an upcoming adjustment to its Peak Season Surcharge (PSS) covering westbound trades connecting the Indian Subcontinent and the Middle East with North America.
The revised surcharge structure will apply specifically to cargo discharged at ports along the East and Gulf coasts of the United States and Canada. The tariff update is set to encompass both dry container loads and refrigerated units moving along these trade lanes.
Equipment types subject to the updated pricing schedule include standard 20-foot dry containers, alongside larger equipment profiles such as 40-foot standard dry boxes, 40-foot high-cube units, and 45-foot dry containers.
According to the carrier, the implementation of the updated PSS levels across the specified regional corridors is scheduled to take effect on 1 October 2026.
