Update: Yantian Port, Shekou Port and Nansha Port

The port congestion at the Yantian International Container Terminal (YICT) in Shenzhen is clearing, while the density at Shekou and Nansha is still on high level. Therefore, we would like to provide you with the latest status of the ports, with an overview about the situation and forecast of the sea freight market.

The terminal operation of YICT is back to normal level. All 20 berths at YICT have resumed full capability. The daily throughput is closed to 40,000 TEUs. The congestion in Yantian is clearing up. The density in Shekou and Nansha is still at a high level. However, the overall situation is improving day by day since the infection cases in Guangzhou and Shenzhen are now under control. Even though the terminal operation has greatly improved, the equipment shortage is still on very high level since there are too many vessel-omission in June, and the stability of sailing schedule is far below the normal level as well.

Besides of above we also note that the congestion is not only in Pearl River Delta area, but also all major port over the world. Thus, we foresee the entire recovery will be very slowly.

Yantian Port

  • Since 3rd of July, the number of daily reservation of truck has increased to 11,000 per day.
  • Effective from 16th of July, export laden container gate-in will be accepted 7 days prior to vessel ETB (estimated time of berth), AND only after the terminal confirms the advanced reservations made by trucking companies for laden containers gate-in.

Shekou Port

  • Since 8th of July, export laden container gate-in will be accepted only to vessels within ETA-4 days. Only after the terminal confirms the advanced reservations made by trucking companies for laden containers gate-in. The number of daily truck reservations is 8,000 per day.

Nansha Port

  • In general, there is no restriction of pick up and return export laden container into the terminal from terminal side. In the meantime, some carriers may take the measures due to lack of equipment.

We are in close contact with carriers and service providers on a daily basis and do our best to make your supply chain as smooth as possible. For individual advice, please contact your local representative of DACHSER so that we can implement the best logistics solution for you.

New regulatory requirements for lithium batteries and cells as of January 1, 2020

Before lithium batteries and cells can be transported, they must pass certain tests. These tests simulate various conditions with regard to, for example, pressure, temperature, crushing and impact that may arise during shipping.

On January 1, 2020, more stringent requirements concerning lithium batteries and cells will come into effect for all modes of transport worldwide. In future, a test summary compliant with UN 38.3.5 must be submitted for all lithium batteries and cells manufactured after June 30, 2003 (i.e. UN3480, UN3481, UN3091, UN3090), as well as for all battery-powered vehicles manufactured after June 30, 2003 (i.e. UN 3171). Doing so will be the joint responsibility of the manufacturers and the distributors of these goods.

According to the airlines, carriers and shipping companies, these documents can be requested from DACHSER. We therefore kindly ask our customers to make these documents available to us for all the lithium batteries and cells mentioned, so that we can, in turn, make them available throughout the entire supply chain. We hereby inform our customers that, as of January 1, 2020, it will no longer be possible to load the affected goods without these documents. For further information, please click here.

Please contact your local DACHSER representative if you have any questions.
