ANL Applies Rate Restoration on Asia-Australia Lanes from 15 November
The CMA CGM subsidiary announces increases of US$500 per 20-foot and US$1,000 per 40-foot container on Asia to Australia and New Zealand lanes, plus a Fremantle congestion surcharge.
Carrier ANL, part of the CMA CGM Group, will apply a rate restoration on Asia to Australia and New Zealand trade lanes effective 15 November 2026, amounting to US$500 per 20-foot container and US$1,000 per 40-foot container, according to an announcement reported by The DCN.
A congestion surcharge for shipments via Fremantle will also apply from 1 December 2026 to 31 January 2027. The measures come alongside broader market reports of easing rates on China to Southeast Asia routes, indicating divergent price movements across Asia-Pacific trade lanes ahead of the year-end shipping period.
The adjustments affect importers and exporters moving cargo between Asia and Australasia, including shippers using regional transshipment hubs, and add to the cost considerations for the remainder of the 2026 contracting and booking cycle.
