Chittagong Port Ship Chandler – Marine Supply & Vessel Support at Chattogram Port

Chittagong (Chattogram) Port – Bangladesh's largest seaport and premier maritime gateway, managing over 90% of the nation's international seaborne trade. Operated by the Chattogram Port Authority (CPA), the port is strategically positioned on the Karnaphuli River, 10–12 nautical miles from the Bay of Bengal, with extensive container terminals, bulk cargo berths, oil jetties, and multipurpose facilities.

As the nation's busiest commercial hub, Chittagong Port handles container vessels, bulk carriers, tankers, general cargo ships, offshore support vessels, and project cargo operators. Major infrastructure projects—including the Bay Terminal and Patenga Container Terminal—are expanding deep-water capacity and vessel turnaround efficiency for international shipping lines.

Advice

Tips & Warnings for Masters & Agents at Chittagong Port

Tidal Transit Windows

Coordinate river entry to cross the main bars exactly 2 hours before peak high tide. Remember that inward movements for vessels exceeding 170 meters in length are strictly limited to daylight hours by the port control.

River Current Precautions

During the heavy monsoon season (June to September), river discharge streams accelerate rapidly. Ensure your vessel drops a secondary anchor at the outer anchorage and keeps the main propulsion engine ready for immediate maneuvering.

CPA Customs Clearing

Transmit your pre-arrival security manifests, cargo breakdown manifests, and dangerous goods logs to the Chittagong Port Authority 48 hours before crossing the pilot boarding line to prevent mandatory anchorage fines.
