MPA started out as an all-round port agent. Over time, however, it specialised increasingly more in everything to do with crewing: the personal side of ship transport. We know our clients. Our background as an all-round port agent has provided us with great expertise regarding the complete company process with clients. This allows us to respond to client demand like no other.

Whether it is about a single visa request or a complete crew change, a dry docking or lay-up, MPA is the pre-eminent maritime service provider.

Discover what MPA can mean for you, your ship, and your crew!

MPA operates at ports in the Netherlands and Belgium. In both countries, we have a branch with all the required local expertise.

Apart from these ports, we are also active at ports in Northern France and Northern Germany, sometimes in cooperation with a regular service partner.
We know the way and have good contact with the port authorities, customs, and especially immigration offices in all ports.

We also have agreements and contracts with hotels, medical service providers, and
Embassies.

In short: we’re at home at the port!

Our assistance is thorough and modular. Whether it is about a port agency, crew change, crew logistics services, dry docking, or spare part arrangements, MPA just does it!

You will discover that “just” has a very different meaning here. Because of our proactive attitude, we are always looking for the best balance of costs, necessary formalities, and operationally smooth connections between the interests of the shipping companies, ship, and crew, on the one hand, and government services and suppliers, on the other hand.

MPA arranges the entire chain of services we provide it in-house.

An important pillar with that is our quick and good communication, and communication is the foundation of a good operation.
