In the event that a ship is seeking permission to take refuge or shelter within the Port Limits, the agent or master must submit an application to the Port Manager to obtain approval before entering the declared port limits.

The permit given in this situation does not cover vessels that are in distress as this situation would require the National Maritime Safety Authority’s action.

To obtain a permit, the applicant must complete the designated application (provide link) and submit with the necessary requirements specified on the application form.

Information on fee schedule for this activity can be found on Gazettal notice G427 (provide link).
