Maersk notes that the above rates are also subject to other applicable surcharges, including local charges and contingency charges. These levels do not override and are not affected by any tariff published or filed in accordance with local regulatory requirements.
For trades governed by the U.S. Shipping Act or China Maritime Regulations, Maersk emphasizes that any quotation or surcharge differing from its public tariff is not binding unless it is formally included in a filed service contract or service contract amendment with the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) or the Shanghai Shipping Exchange, as applicable.
