Publication and scope
Hellenic Shipping News Worldwide carried the item announcing the release of the TIS Q2 2026 Intelligence Report on 18 August 2026. The material identifies the document as the association’s Second Quarter 2026 report and describes the numbered incidents and counterfeit cases included in the TIS dataset for that quarter.
The report’s scope is limited to entries logged to the TAPA Intelligence System for Q2 2026 and to the 13 Asia Pacific countries recorded in the TIS dataset for that period. The figures published offer a quarterly snapshot intended to reflect activity recorded within the system, as presented by TAPA APAC through the report.
Details included in the Q2 2026 compilation are statistical in nature, providing counts of recorded incidents and of counterfeit occurrences alongside the aggregated figure for direct cargo losses. The association’s TIS remains the database from which those counts were drawn for the quarter.
The TIS Second Quarter 2026 Intelligence Report, as presented in the published item, therefore furnishes a quantified view of recorded cargo crime and counterfeit activity in the Asia Pacific region for April to June 2026. The report gives industry readers the compiled totals for those months and notes the aggregated direct losses associated with the recorded incidents.
Hellenic Shipping News Worldwide’s coverage of the release published on 18 August 2026 relayed the key numerical findings from the TIS Q2 2026 report. Those figures, 125 cargo crime incidents, 148 counterfeit cases, 13 countries and more than USD 4.8 million in direct cargo losses, are the principal data points made public in that announcement.
