Shipping agency services

A shipping agent provides a range of services to ensure the smooth operation of ships arriving at port. These services may include crew change services, container vessel planning, and acting as an agent for general services in port. The agent works to ensure a berth is available for the incoming ship and arranges for the necessary pilot and tug services.

Additionally, the agent draws up customs and harbor service documents, assists the master with local authorities and harbor authorities, and arranges for necessary ship provisions and repairs. The agent also organizes the supply, transport, and handling of goods, coordinates with stevedores, experts, or surveyors, and collects freight and cargo. Finally, the agent contacts shippers and receivers of the goods to ensure smooth and timely delivery.

Cases of damage and shipping agent responsibility

In the event of damage to the cargo or the ship, the shipping agent takes on the responsibility of coordinating the necessary arrangements to mitigate the impact of the damage. Upon request from the ship’s master or owner, the agent contacts the insurance company to initiate any claims process.

Additionally, the agent arranges for nautical inspections and the services of experts or surveyors to assess the damage and provide guidance on the repair or replacement of damaged items. Through this process, the shipping agent plays a critical role in ensuring the smooth and efficient resolution of any issues related to cargo or ship damage.
