The current situation in the Middle East is creating significant pressure on global maritime transport. Security risks have increased. Several shipping lines have introduced a War Risk Surcharge, WRS, on affected routes. Some services have been temporarily suspended or rerouted.

These measures are imposed directly by the carriers. As a result, we will apply the WRS to our quotations with immediate effect where applicable. Route changes or service suspensions may also impact transit times and scheduled connections.

The team at Arwen Olsen is actively working to ensure that all your shipments reach their destination safely. We monitor developments daily. We maintain direct contact with shipping lines and local partners. We secure alternative routing options when restrictions arise. We review each shipment individually and confirm the safest available solution.

We focus on practical action and optimize routes to limit delays. We clarify terms with carriers and inform you immediately about any change that may affect your cargo.

Our goal is clear: we protect your supply chain. We maintain operational continuity and deliver safely, even in unstable conditions.
