Port of Antwerp-Bruges has published its 2027 tariff adjustments covering both the Antwerp and Bruges-Zeebrugge port areas, with changes affecting vessel dues, environmental incentives, cruise ship charges, waste fees and concession tariffs.

Towage tariffs in the Antwerp docks will increase by 3.57%, while Zeebrugge platform towage dues are indexed in accordance with contractual agreements with Boluda at 2.65%.
