Local cargo consolidators (LCL shipments) have implemented a Temporary Emergency Fuel Levy on all LCL shipments, import and export, across all Australian ports from 1st April 2026 @ $ 5.00 per cbm or 1000kgs.
Empty Container Parks have also introduced the Temporary Emergency Fuel Levy of $ 10.00 per container to “cover additional operating costs” effective immediately.
Airline Cargo Terminals have announced that they too are introducing the Temporary Emergency Fuel Levy of 10% based on their International Terminal Fees and their Airline Transfer Fees effective from 1st April 2026.
All above costs will be listed separately on all invoices from 1st April 2026 until charges are withdrawn by cargo terminal operators.
We sincerely apologise for the late notice but most of these companies have just announced these increases in the last 24 hours.
