PROTECTIVE AGENCY SERVICES

Asist Ship Agency provides independent protective agency services to safeguard the interests of shipowners, operators and cargo stakeholders during port calls throughout Turkish ports.

Port operations often involve multiple parties with differing commercial priorities.
Our protective agency function ensures transparent supervision, accurate reporting and professional representation to support the principal’s position at every stage of the port stay.

Independent Representation & Operational Oversight

Acting solely on behalf of our principals, we monitor all operational activities and maintain close liaison with port authorities, terminals, service providers and local agents.
This structured approach supports efficient port turnaround while helping to minimise operational risks, misunderstandings and potential disputes.
