In light of the current shipping downturn and to demonstrate the government’s commitment to maintain Singapore as a global hub port, MPA will grant an additional 10% concession on port dues payable by ocean going container vessels carrying out cargo works with port stay of not more than 5 days.
This will be for a period of 1 year and will take effect on 15 January 2016.
The additional 10% concession is granted on remaining port dues payable after the port dues concession for green port programme, if applicable, and the 20% port dues concession for container vessels which was first introduced in 1996.
