Trade Check

Sometimes vessel clearance needs to be quick, so that trade decisions can be made rapidly. Our Trade Check solution offers those who need to make swift choices against the backdrop of a bespoke risk policy or requirement, an easy way to make those decisions.

Trade Check measures vessels against a combination of over 50 rules, selected and controlled by each customer. A fully automated service, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, it gives an immediate pass or fail result on whether a vessel meets a customer’s needs. Each Trade Check reviews thousands of data points for each vessel, ranging from vessel attributes to past events, to legal and trading certificates.

Trade Check offers reassurance that vessels have been evaluated against global safety, sustainability, and social responsibility best practice standards.
