The recent surge in global energy prices—amplified by the evolving security situation in the Middle East and its impact
on worldwide fuel availability—continues to place significant pressure on logistics and intermodal transportation
markets. With approximately 20% of global fuel passing through the Strait of Hormuz, current developments have
created an unprecedented cost environment affecting Landside (Inland) and Intermodal operations.
To ensure service continuity, safeguard cargo integrity, and secure sufficient vendor capacity across our network, A. P.
Moller – Maersk will implement temporary, cost reflective energy/fuel price adjustments on Landside Transportation.
This is an exceptional measure that will apply during the following weeks. The way of calculation will be as per below:
Effective from 4 August 2026 and until further notice we are implementing an Intermodal Fuel Fee (EFS/IFS).
The surcharge will be in place for as long as it is necessary to cover the increased costs that we are incurring.
Surcharge codes will be presented on invoices as “EFS” (Export Fuel Surcharge) and “IFS” (Import Fuel Surcharge).
Above % will be applied to the IHI/IHE.
Given the volatility of the current energy market, further adjustments may be required as conditions evolve.
We understand the impact these measures may have on your operations and remain committed to supporting your
logistics needs through this challenging period. For any questions or guidance, please reach out to your local Maersk
Sales representative you are currently engaged with.
(*) For non-FMC shipments, the price calculation date is the Estimated Time of Departure (ETD) of the first vessel shown in the most recent booking
confirmation issued at the customer’s request.
(*) For FMC shipments, the price calculation date, is the date on which Maersk A/S, or one of its authorised agents, takes possession of the last container
listed on the transport document. For FMC, the Intermodal Fuel Fee applies from 12 June 2026.
Thank you for your continued partnership and trust in Maersk.
