According to the latest news released by CMA CMA, the operators of branch lines in South China and Hong Kong have announced the suspension of branch line services from Jan 1 to Jan 31, 2023, due to quarantine requirements for crew members due to the COVID-19 outbreak before the Lunar New Year.

The restriction will apply to cargo bound for about 30 destinations in January, including three destinations in Fujian province (Fuzhou, Fuqing and Quanzhou) with stops in Hong Kong, Yantian, Nansha and Shekou respectively.

Hapag-lloyd will stop receiving goods from South China during the Spring Festival
A few days ago, the official website of Hebleot also announced that the branch line operator in South China announced to suspend the branch line service from late December 2022 to the end of January 2023. This is a precautionary measure as there are quarantine requirements for sailors sailing between South China and Hong Kong after the 2023 Spring Festival holiday.
In view of the situation, Haberot said it would suspend the receipt of goods with final destinations in the Pearl River Delta region and Fuzhou region until further notice. However, mainline freight services to major ports such as Hong Kong, Yantian or Shekou will continue.
It should be noted that any additional overtime rates implemented by feeder operators during this period will be borne by shippers. Any additional charges and liabilities related to demururation charges, terminal storage charges or terminal charges incurred at the transshipment ports (Hong Kong, Shekou, Yan Tin, Tai Po Wan) after the containers have been discharged during the suspension period of the feeder operators will be borne by the shippers.
In addition, the booking suspension time to South China is based on the estimated arrival time (ETA) of major ports such as Hong Kong, Yantian, Shekou and Tai Chao Wan. Suitable for all types and sizes of container cargo, including special cargo (DG/RF/OOG).
The following is the list of ports in South China affected and the starting and ending times for suspension of booking:
The full notice from Haberot is as follows:

In recent years, shipping companies have issued similar notices to suspend shipments from South China during the Spring Festival.
