Pacific Forum Line Trade Notice – Cook Islands CABAF (Currency and Bunker Adjustment Factor) Effective 14th August 2026
Dear Valued Customer,
Due to ongoing currency fluctuations, the vessel operator to the Cook Islands has announced a 10% increase
on their Currency Adjustment factor (CAF) rate, effective from 14th August 2026.
As a slot partner, we therefore have had to revise our current CABAF (combined Currency and Bunker Adjustment Factor) for all Cook Islands cargo, also effective from 14th August 2026.
Please refer to the revised rate as below:
- Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific to and from the Cook Islands (Rarotonga and Aitutaki):
CAF +19.4% of Ocean freight rate
BAF +26.3% of Ocean freight rate
Thank you for your continued support, should you have any further questions or queries please contact your
Pacific Forum Line representative.
Sincerely,
PFL
