MERT SHIPPING · SINCE 1947
Ship and port agency in Turkey
Based in İzmir, Mert Shipping helps owners, operators and brokers plan vessel calls at Turkish ports. For dry bulk operations, we assess port costs and service requirements using the vessel, terminal and cargo particulars.
How we can help
- Budgeting for pilotage, towage, mooring, berth and waste reception by terminal.
- Separate customs overtime/travel, chamber and applicable VTS charges.
- Coordination of loading/discharging and local services.
What to include in your enquiry
Vessel name, flag, GT/NT, cargo type and quantity, port/terminal, ETA and expected stay.
Price, service scope and appointment are finalized by mutual confirmation.
Before you start
Is a port PDA the final disbursement account?
A PDA is a preliminary estimate. Actual services, duration, current tariffs and documented exemptions may affect the final account. Official invoices are forwarded to the owner following payment.
