Requirements & Recommendations for Ship Spare In Transit Delivery

Our experienced team ensures compliance with all local and international regulations, providing efficient custom clearance and delivery services at Chattogram, Mongla, and other ports.

Key Considerations for Ship Owners and Spare Suppliers:

Proper Marking and Documentation
All ship spares must be clearly marked as “Ship’s Spare in Transit” in the Air Waybill (AWBL). This is crucial for accurately identifying and handling items throughout customs.

Preferred Shipping Methods
It is recommended that ship spares be sent via courier rather than under Letter of Credit (LC) terms. This ensures faster handling and customs clearance. Ship spares should be addressed as “Ship Spares in Transit, Master of MV/MT… C/O [Shipping Agent’s Name],” who will be responsible for the customs clearance at Dhaka or Chattogram Airport.

Timing of Arrival
Ideally, ship spares should arrive at the Bangladesh airport after the vessel’s docking at Chattogram or Mongla ports to synchronize with the ship’s schedule. When spares arrive earlier, special arrangements are made to hold them securely until needed.

Clearance Timeframe
Typically, ship spares are released from customs in 3 to 4 working days. Expedited services are available to meet emergency needs, ensuring minimal repair downtime.

Communication and Documentation
The ship’s master must issue an email formally requesting the release of spares. This communication should be directed to the designated agents and will subsequently be presented to the customs authorities by the customs broker. The attending customs officer’s endorsement on this email is necessary for the release process.

Final Documentation and Verification
Upon successful delivery of the spares to the vessel, the master must issue a confirmation note and endorse the delivery document. This endorsed document is crucial and should be resubmitted to customs as local regulations recommend, ensuring a complete and transparent transaction.
