Port Agency Services

Berth-to-berth coordination across every Bangladesh port

Overview

JP Ship Management provides comprehensive port agency services across every major Bangladesh port. From pre-arrival documentation and berth booking to cargo operations, crew changes and final clearance, our team ensures every port call runs on schedule and within budget.

As a full-service port agent, JP Ship Management represents ship owners, managers and operators for every port call in Bangladesh. Our appointed agents live at the port — not in a distant capital — so berth prospects, tide windows and vessel movements are monitored in real time.

We work directly with Chittagong Port Authority (CPA), Mongla Port Authority (MPA), Payra Port Authority (PPA), Bangladesh Coast Guard, Customs, Immigration and Health authorities to fast-track every clearance. Owners get one accountable point of contact and one transparent disbursement account — no hidden fees, no surprises.

From a routine liner call to a first-time tramp voyage, we produce a written port-call plan before arrival, a live daily update while in port, and a full closure report with signed statement of facts within 48 hours of sailing.
