A year from its deferment, the 5% increase in cargo handling charges for foreign cargoes shall take effect starting 1 October 2021. 

To recall, CPA has deferred the implementation of the increase to 1 October 2021 per Resolution No. 833-2020 by the Cebu Port Commission (CPC). 

The 5% increase is the second tranche of the 10% across-the-board increase in foreign cargo-handling tariff (excluding for cement, iron, and steel products) in the Port of Cebu that was approved on 27 September 2019 under CPA Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 12-2019. 

The first tranche in the 10% increase was implemented in 19 October 2019 while the second tranche was supposed to be implemented on 19 October 2020, one year after the implementation of the first tranche.
