India’s ban on Pak-origin cargo at ports triggers spike in freight costs, delays- Report

Following the Pahalgam terror attack, India's ban on ships carrying goods from or to Pakistan has significantly disrupted Pakistani trade. This ban, effective May 2025, has led to increased freight charges and longer shipping times, forcing importers to rely on feeder vessels. Indian agencies are actively enforcing the ban, seizing falsely declared Pakistani goods routed through third countries.
