Over the past week there occurred delays in discharging goods in Sydney, massive congestion surcharges and now vessels have started skipping Sydney altogether. Unfortunately, these challenges are beyond our control.

Please be aware that for cargo to Sydney there may be charged Port Congestion fees.

The recent announcement of vessel omissions at Sydney is impacting both imports and exports.

We apologise for the impact on your consignments and appreciate your understanding. Be assured that our ocean freight teams do their utmost and work hard to care of your business.

If you have concerns about a particular order, please get in  touch with your local ocean freight contact at Lamprecht Transport who will be happy to help.

The governments of Australia and New Zealand have again decided that sea freight shipments with certain categories of goods imported into Australia and New Zealand between September 1, 2020 and May 31, 2021 must be fumigated or heat treated. The marmorated stink bug is to be kept away from Australia and New Zealand, as it could severely affect the agriculture of both countries.

This means that the same rules as last year apply. Further information can be found under the following links: for Australia, for New Zealand.
