30 Jul 2025 / Suez Canal, Egypt
As a fulfillment of the requests of Containerships' Owners and Operators, and in light of the current positive developments in the security situation in the "Red Sea" and "Bab Al-Mandab Strait", Suez Canal Authority decided the following:
Laden or Ballast “Containerships” of Suez Canal Net Tonnage 130,000 Tons or above, transiting the Suez Canal (Northbound or Southbound) are granted a rebate of 15% upon transit.
The aforementioned rebate percentage is only calculated from (normal transit dues stipulated by the transit dues table + surcharges levied on tiers of containers).
The aforementioned Suez Canal Net Tonnage refers to the basic Suez Canal Net Tonnage without any additions temporary added upon transit (e.g. Double Bottom Tanks, temporary stores ...etc.).
The aforementioned rebate is directly granted upon transit without the need to submit any requests or documents.
[This is applicable to “Containerships” transiting the Suez Canal for a period of 90 days, starting from 15 May 2025.]
