ONE introduces Inland Fuel Surcharge in Latin America
Apr, 08, 2026 Posted by Gabriel MalheirosWeek 202615
The evolving security situation in the Middle East continues to pose significant challenges, affecting logistics operations and customer supply chains. Recent developments in the region, including the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, have had a substantial impact on global fuel availability and distribution. Many refineries are also operating at reduced capacity, limiting export volumes and causing major disruptions across global fuel supply chains.
Against that backdrop, Ocean Network Express, or ONE, will implement an Inland Fuel Surcharge, or IFL/IFD, on carrier-haulage inland transport for all inbound and outbound shipments to and from Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay, across all trades and services.
Effective date
Non-FMC-regulated trades: April 2, 2026
To and from Colombia: May 2, 2026
To and from Ecuador: May 2, 2026
FMC-regulated trades, Canada*: May 2, 2026
*United States, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, Guam, Saipan and Hawaii
