Flinders Adelaide Container Terminal to increase access charges

FLINDERS Adelaide Container Terminal is increasing its terminal access charge from 1 April 2022.

From that date, a TAC of $79.50 (excluding GST) will be applied to full export containers and a TAC of $112.50 (excluding GST) will be applied to full import containers.

In a customer notice, dated Monday 24 January, FACT said for the first time, the TAC will be split, and different charge increases will be applied to full import and export containers.

The company said this was in response to a consultative process undertaken in December 2020 in relation to the 1 July 2021 TAC increases.

“This is in response to the consultative process undertaken in December 2020 in relation to the TAC July 1 2021 increase,” the notice said.

FACT said it had briefed the relevant statutory parties and industry representative bodies about the increase in charges.
