$MATX $ZIM CMA-CGM's U.S.-based American President Lines and Israel-based Zim (2SV.F), opens new tab, which appears to have more than 25% of its shares owned by U.S. entities, Lars Jensen, CEO of consultancy Vespucci Maritime, said on LinkedIn.
The China fees also could apply to vessels owned by Poseidon's Seaspan, said Jensen, an expert on container shipping.
"This could be quite an impact as it means that the more than 100 vessels owned by Seaspan, and chartered by a variety of major container lines, would now be subject to fees in China in addition to the fees in the U.S. for their Chinese-built vessels," Jensen said.
