ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (the “Company”) hereby updates that on August 22, 2025, it received a notice from the Turkish Port Authorities through the Company’s local agent in Turkey, that as a result of a new regulation adopted in Turkey, vessels that are either owned, managed or operated by an entity related to Israel will not be permitted to berth in Turkish ports. This said regulation has been adopted with immediate effect.

Separately, based on the new regulation, among others, vessels that are carrying military cargo destined to Israel will not be permitted to berth in Turkish ports; in addition, Turkish-flagged vessels will be prohibited from berthing in Israeli ports.

As a result of the above new regulation, the Company re-routed certain Company-operated vessels that were scheduled to call Turkish ports.

If the new regulation remains unchanged, it is expected to negatively impact the Company’s financial and operational results. The Company is currently developing a mitigation plan to reduce the potential adverse effects of this regulation. The Company reaffirms its full year 2025 guidance as delivered in its 6-K filed on August 20, 2025.

The information in this Form 6-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
