    Customs Clearance, Temporary Admission & Government Permits operations support in Egypt

    Customs Clearance, Temporary Admission & Government Permits

    Customs handling for marine and offshore cargo with documentation control, authority coordination and release-focused execution.

    Service overview

    Planned around the operational requirement

    The correct customs route depends on the cargo, port, free-zone status and regulatory regime. Max Marine handles import, export, temporary admission and re-export shipments for marine, petroleum and industrial cargo, including tariff classification, duty coordination and exemption applications.

    For oil and gas cargo, Max Marine coordinates petroleum equipment, offshore-project temporary imports and free-zone procedures directly with EGPC and the operating companies. This includes transferring petroleum supply covers between companies when equipment moves from one project to another, without re-exporting and re-importing the equipment.

    When a client has no Egyptian export registration, Max Marine can export eligible cargo under its own Exporters’ Registry as part of the agreed customs and re-export scope.
