Dear ZIM Customer,

In light of the increasing imbalance on the trade between Turkey to North Europe, and in order to maintain our high service levels, please be advised that ZIM has decided to increase Emergency Imbalance Surcharge from $55 to $100 per dry cargo Container on Export from Turkey to all North European Ports,.

The above shall be implemented as of December 21, 2020 sailing date, till further notice. ^(*)

• Above charges are additional to the applicable base freight charge, THC, bunker charges and security and PSS related charges which are provided in ZIM's Tariff Calculator (http://www.zim.com/tools/tariff-calculator).
• For further details, other types of containers (including reefers) and special cargo kindly see our website zim.com or contact our local sales/customer service representative.

These measures are necessary in order to maintain our current levels of service and high reliability.
