FAQs
Yes, our port agency desk operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. We provide full port representation and husbandry services across all commercial ports, container terminals, and offshore tanker anchorages in Albania, including the Port of Durrës (East & West terminals), the Port of Vlorë, the northern port of Shengjin, and the southern cruise/yacht port of Sarandë.
For Schengen-nation crew members, transfers can be coordinated within 24 hours. For non-Schengen nationalities requiring transit visas or official Letters of Invitation (LOI) to clear Tirana International Airport (TIA), we recommend a lead time of 3 to 5 business days. Our agency manages the entire pipeline, from arranging local border police shore passes to providing private airport shuttle transport.
CTM represents a significant financial responsibility. We execute physical, hand-to-hand CTM deliveries in USD or EUR directly aboard your vessel. To ensure absolute security and compliance with international anti-money laundering (AML) laws, we require at least 5 business days' advance notice to arrange armored transport, complete bank clearances, and prepare official transfer of custody receipts.
Yes, absolutely. If your vessel requires emergency dry-docking, welding, mechanical repairs, or diagnostic servicing, we coordinate with local marine engineers and shipyards. Furthermore, we handle the complex customs and clearance documentation for technical "Ship Spares in Transit" arriving via Tirana Airport or road corridors, ensuring they are delivered shipside without delaying your vessel’s voyage.
As an ITIC-insured member, we strictly adhere to international maritime integrity standards. Prior to any vessel calling at Albania, we provide highly detailed, realistic Pro Forma Disbursement Accounts (DAs) based on official port tariffs, local limits, and actual agency fees. All final DAs are fully auditable and backed by official port invoices and government receipts, avoiding any hidden surcharges.
