Due to the congestion in the South African ports generating difficult conditions to operate, MSC will apply a Congestion Surcharge (CGS) for cargo from any destination except East and West Africa to all South African ports to maintain our services at the required level.
As from 3 December 2023 (Bill of Lading date) onwards, the CGS will be charged USD 210/TEU for dry cargoes only.
Should you have any questions, please contact your local MSC representatives in our global network of more than 675 offices.
