For brands moving FCL through Mundra, here is the on-the-ground view for the second half of May 2026.
Berth congestion
Average waiting time has eased to ~14 hours from last month's 26-hour peak, thanks to the new container yard going live on the east side.
Empty container availability
20' standard: plentiful. 40' high-cube: tight on Far East returns — book 5 days in advance.
Customs queue
EDI clearance is averaging 6 hours for green-channel imports. Examination queue is running 28-36 hours; budget accordingly if you ship perishables.
