How to read this table: "Direct (Y)" is the tariff's direct-sailing flag; "Via IST (N)" and "Via RTM (N)" are flagged N with the transshipment port named. A dash means no transshipment port. Rates are the November 2026 Shanghai DG LCL tariff with the USD30/CBM uplift applied, so every figure is all-in on the ocean leg. Guangzhou origins are quoted case by case.
