Overview

Supporting bidders and suppliers of state import tenders

International suppliers and traders who bid on Bangladesh government import tenders need a reliable local shipping agent at the discharge port. Arzaan supports them from the pre-bid stage to final outturn — with realistic port information for pricing, a formal local-agent nomination where required, and close supervision of discharge so contracts close cleanly.

Flag waiver certificates

Under the Bangladesh Flag Vessels (Protection of Interest) Act 2019, foreign-flag vessels generally need a waiver certificate from the Mercantile Marine Office to carry cargo to and from Bangladesh, and government-funded cargo gives priority to Bangladesh-flag vessels. We guide our principals through the waiver application early so it does not delay the voyage. Rules change — we confirm the current requirement for each fixture.
