Blue Water in Denmark has introduced a variable fuel surcharge for European road transport to and from Denmark.
Please be aware that the diesel surcharge will be adjusted if Blue Water's expense and pricing structure changes.
Temporary capacity fee
The significant capacity challenge - which have been impacting the overseas markets and carried heavy Freight rises – has also hit Europe and thereby the road traffic. On all our European markets we experience an increased pressure to procure trucks, drivers and trailers. And thereby, transports are in general becoming more costly.
At Blue Water, we can determine that the quantities continue to increase, and the European capacity remains unchanged. It is no longer possible to absorb the increasing costs while continuing to maintain same level of service and quality.
For this reason, Blue Water introduces a temporary capacity fee which will be removed once the situation is back to normal.

Temporary Brexit fee
Due to delays on customs clearance from British side and strict corona restrictions, we are introducing a temporary Brexit fee of 9.7 % per shipment to continuously sustain our transport lines to and from the UK. This fee covers all shipments to and from the UK, Ireland and Northern Ireland. When the situation is back to normal, we will remove the fee again.
EU Road Tax adjustment
Effective from 01.01.2020
The EU Road Tax comprises all charges paid for Maut, road tax and toll in the European countries.
The individual countries currently make minor and major adjustments of these charges which contribute to upgrading the road network.
Last time we changed our prices was on 1 January 2019 in connection with Germany’s heavy increase of its Maut tariff.
This time there will be few and minor adjustments:
- Denmark is, together with Holland and Luxembourg among others, a member of the Eurovignette cooperation. In 2019 the price increased from € 8 per day to € 12 per day
- Austria has increased the rates by 5-6 percent as from 1 January and has introduced an additional increase (20.3%) on the important transit distance to Italy
The consequence of these adjustments means that the EU Road Tax will increase by 2-3 percent for the Benelux countries, Austria and Italy.
If you have any questions to this subject, your Blue Water contact will be pleased to help.
SECA fee
Sulphur Emission Fee
New sulphur rules are imposed on shipping lines as per 1 Januar 2015 in order to reduce sulphur emission by 2016 in the Sulphur Emission Area (SECA) of the Baltic Sea, the North Sea and the English Channel.
Subsequently, shipping lines are enforcing an extra fee, which we regret having to charge our customers for shipments after 1 Jan 2015. All fees are calculated after payable weight.
Introduction of SECA surcharge on the Irish Sea
As from 1 January 2020, vessels navigating the Irish Sea are under an obligation to use fuel with lower sulphur content, resulting in less pollution.
This will entail necessary investments/expenses for the shipping lines involved.
Therefore, a Low Sulphur Surcharge will be imposed on navigation and consequently also on sea Freight on the Irish Sea as of 1 january 2020.
