Management
Visiting yacht support
India is a rewarding place to cruise, with heavy paperwork. As agent for visiting yachts we handle clearance, permits and logistics, so a crew fresh off a long passage has one contact rather than six departments.

- Mumbai, Goa, Kochi
- Clearance
- In & out
- Support
- 24/7 on arrival

Arrival and clearance
We file ahead of your ETA and meet you when you arrive. Customs, immigration, port health and harbour formalities run as one process.
- Pre-arrival notification and document filing
- Customs, immigration and port health clearance
- Cruising permit applications and extensions
- Berth or mooring arrangement and shore access
- Departure clearance and onward port notification
During your stay
Bunkering, water, provisioning, laundry, waste and pump-out, crew transfers, visa support, spares import and clearance, and help from our own yard if something broke on passage.
Local advice
Anchorages, tide and current advice, monsoon timing, and an honest view on which stretches of coast deserve a detour.

Questions
Frequently asked
Is an agent required to enter India?
Not legally at every port, but it saves days in practice. Clearance involves several departments with limited hours, and advance filing can reduce it to one morning.
How long may a foreign yacht stay?
That depends on the cruising permit and the crew's visas, which are issued separately for different periods. We track both and begin extensions before either expires.
Can you receive spares for my yacht?
Yes. Parts sent to a yacht in transit can usually clear on concessional terms. Send the shipping documents before dispatch, since clearing them afterwards is much harder.
