Effortless Cargo Shipping: A Guide to Shipping from South Korea to Europe via Pusan (Busan)

The Port of Busan is the largest port in South Korea. The recent record that was set was an annual cargo tonnage of 21.992 million TEU. The Port of Busan is the fifth-busiest container port in the world and the tenth-busiest port in Northeast Asia. Today, the Port of Busan consists of four ports: the Busan North Port, the South Port, the Gamcheon Port, the Dadaepo Port, the International Passenger Terminal, and the Gamman Container Terminal. The port is part of the 21st century maritime Silk Road that runs from the Chinese coast to Singapore, to the southern tip of India to Mombasa, from there across the Red Sea through the Suez Canal to the Mediterranean, from there to the Upper Adriatic region to the northern Italian center of Trieste with its links to Central Europe and the North Sea.


Due to the recent collapses in the Red Sea, which caused an urgent disruption of global shipping through the Suez Canal, freight rates for any shipping from South Korea to Europe have increased by at least $1000. In most cases, transportation on this route has stopped altogether, as well as on many others through the Red Sea, the Suez Canal, and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. However, in this situation, SeaRates offers alternative shipping routes and effective transportation solutions, including from Korea to Europe and vice versa.



Let's move on to an overview of the updated freight rates for shipping between South Korea, the port of Busan and the main ports of Europe.
