Compliance on every port call

Most port-call delays start with a document: a certificate that expires mid-voyage, a crew list that does not match, a submission in the wrong sequence. Every Vandyvah port call runs the same checks before anything is submitted.

Port-call document checks

  • documents checked against the vessel particulars before submission
  • certificate validity confirmed for the full port call
  • crew list matched to crew documentation
  • cargo and voyage details confirmed with the principal
  • submissions made in the required format and sequence
  • every submission recorded in the port-call report

Available on request

  • shipping agency licence documentation
  • Corporate Affairs Commission registration details
  • registered director information
  • company addresses and operations contacts
