Protective Agency
We offer protective agency both for shipowners (OPA) and charterers/cargo owners (CPA) to supervise the counterparty’s agent throughout the port call. As protective agents we ensure that your interests are well taken care of. This helps you avoid any conflict of interest that may arise with many stakeholders involved in a port call.
Fast, reliable, transparent, available 24/7 and compliant. We recently had to involve Mytransmarine as a protective agent in Port Malaysia as we were not able to appoint/pay receiver’s agent directly. Mytransmarine via their South East Asia office and local Malaysia office, managed to act as a protective agent even though only appointed last minute. They got our vessel in and out of Malaysia smoothly without any headaches for us. -Hadi Fertilizer Trading, Gary Votsky, Chartering Manager
