In order, to keep providing you with our global services, Maersk is revising the Terminal Handling Service – Origin (OHC) & Terminal Handling Service - Destination (DHC) charges for the scope of World to/from LAM Countries with effective from 01-November-2025 until further notice.
Latin America Countries:
Brazil/ Argentina/Chile/Panama/Colombia and Guatemala
The tariff amount is detailed as follow:
* Non-SPOT booking – The above rate is retrieved based on PCD. PCD = Price Calculation Date. For non-FMC, PCD refers to the scheduled departure date of the first water leg at the time of booking confirmation for non-spot bookings. For FMC, PCD is last container gate-in date for non-spot bookings.
* SPOT booking – The above rate is retrieved based on 1st vessel ETD at booking confirmation for Spot bookings.
For your reference, we have also included the levels and rate structure for some sample corridors from Santos, BR to Rotterdam, NL valid from 01-Nov-25 until further notice. These may be subject to future Change; however, we will make sure to notify you accordingly.
