Wan Hai Lines has officially announced a new Rate Restoration (RR) for all ocean freight moving on its Asia trades. The Taiwanese carrier will implement these rate adjustments starting April 1, 2026.
Shippers moving freight on these affected Asia routes need to factor the following rate increases into their logistics budgets:
- $100 per 20 foot container
- $200 per 40 foot container
According to Wan Hai, this rate restoration is a direct response to escalating operating costs, which are heavily linked to the ongoing logistical disruptions in the Middle East.
By implementing this rate adjustment, the carrier aims to secure service continuity and maintain a consistent quality of service across its impacted trade lanes.
The company confirmed it will continue to monitor global market conditions closely and will adjust its pricing and maritime operations accordingly as the situation evolves.
