With reference to our latest round of meetings with relevant stakeholders and assurances given to immediately address the congestion at Aqaba, we are postponing the effective date of surcharge to August 1st instead of July 15th for all trades except North America (FMC) where it will be effective from August 7th instead of August 2nd.
We are continuously monitoring the situation and keeping close coordination with Ministry of Transport, ACT management, Aqaba Development Corporation as well as other stakeholders. We remain committed to serving the Jordanian economy and will gladly reassess the surcharge subject to sustained improvement of the situation.
