What is a Protective Agency?

A Protective Agency acts as an independent representative of the Principal during a vessel’s port call. Unlike the appointed Port Agent, a Protective Agent works solely in the Principal’s best interests by independently monitoring vessel operations, coordinating with all relevant parties, identifying operational issues, and providing timely, accurate, and transparent reports.

Protective Agency Services help shipowners, charterers, operators, and ship managers maintain better operational visibility, improve communication, minimize delays, and protect their commercial interests.
