Abstract: Pricing in transport is a complex process that depends mainly on costs. Before the promotion of sustainable development concept in every area of activity, the environmental costs were not being considered and included in transport pricing. But, for many years European Commission have taken these costs into account and sustained the internalisation of external cost in transport as an essential purpose in order to obtain fair and efficient pricing in the field of transportation. The present paper stresses the importance of external costs in transport sector and analysis this component of transport price in the case of every transport modes, especially in maritime shipping
