Port of Auckland VBS Changes Effective 1 July 2026

03 July 2026

Port of Auckland Vehicle Booking Fee Increase

Dear Valued Customer,

Please be advised that the Port of Auckland has confirmed and increase to their “Peak Period” Vehicle Booking System charges, effective 1 July 2026 as follows:

• Peak period (05:00am – 6:59pm):  increase of $50 per container

• Off-peak period (7:00pm - 04:59am): no change

The revised charge will apply from:

MV Moana Chief V.4813 (Inbound) /4814 (Outbound)
ETA Auckland: 02 July

This adjustment reflects an external charge imposed by the Port of Auckland and is being recovered by Pacifica Shipping on a pass-through basis.

We also take this opportunity to encourage customers that, where operationally feasible, to plan container deliveries and collections during the off-peak period to assist in avoiding the increased peak-period charge.

We appreciate your understanding and continued support as we manage these external  cost adjustments on your behalf within the supply chain.

Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact your Pacifica representative.
