Shipping Agency
ShipOffer provides professional ship agency services for vessels calling at ports across Vietnam. We act as the trusted representative on the ground — for both shipowners and charterers.
Who we represent
• Owners' agent — acting on behalf of the shipowner or operator to protect vessel interests, manage port costs, and oversea operations
• Charterers' agent — acting on behalf of the charterer to supervise cargo operations, monitor laytime, and ensure contractual obligations are met
Dealing with all port parties
