BAF Rates: April 2026

Dear Customers,

As of 1 April 2026, BAF rates applied to the freight rates of units transported on our lines have been determined according to the changes in foreign exchange rates, fuel prices and the BAF Scale available on our website. Please see below shown tables for BAF rates of standard units and containers for April 2026.

In accordance with our BAF scale, the BAF rates applicable for April have been calculated based on fuel prices recorded between the 20^th of the previous month and the 20^th of the current month. During this period, the price for 0.1% ULSFO was EUR 866. This rate level can be monitored through the BAF scale available on our web-site and the BAF / LM table shown below.

As of May 1 2025, in accordance with the MARPOL regulations of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the Mediterranean Region in which we operate has been included in the Emission Control Area (ECA). As a result, the sulphur content of fuels used on vessels in the region must not exceed 0.1%. Therefore, the 0.5% VLSFO which was previously used as the basis for our BAF scale has been replaced with 0.1% ULSFO as of May 1 2025. No changes have been made to the scale itself or the calculation and communication methods used.
