  • a) fm/to the region Cologne up to Basel, will be subject to a congestion surcharge of 25,00 € per container.
  • b) In the Netherlands, more specific for inland terminals Moerdijk/Tilburg/Alphen a/d Rijn will be subject to a congestion surcharge of 10,00 € per TEU.

  • Possible extra cost of 180€/CTR (this then includes the congestion s/c) in case barge cannot discharge the box at the intended deep-sea terminal before vessel’s closing date.
