Dear Customer,
The dynamic situation around the Strait of Hormuz and the necessary operational adjustments are causing disruptions throughout the network, which will impact schedules and equipment supply. Therefore, a War Risk Surcharge (WRS) will take effect for cargo to and from the Upper Gulf, Persian and Arabian Gulf.
Hapag Lloyd has issued the following update to the industry:
The WRS will be effective from March 2, 2026, until further notice.
The details of this WRS are listed below and are applicable with immediate effect (excluding cargo that falls under FMC or SSE regulated scopes):
This surcharge applies to any booking issued on or after March 2, 2026, all bookings already issued but which have not yet shipped, as well as to cargo already on the water but not yet discharged or loaded to/from Iraq, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia (Dammam and Jubail).
Please reach out to your Hensall Global representative should you have any questions.
Sincerely,
