Maritime Trust Corridor
ممر الثقة البحريShip operators, agents and canal authorities share the transit file for the Suez, Panama, Corinth and Kiel canals, with vessel registry, P&I insurance and class certificates checked before arrival.
The problem
Why it is needed
A canal transit needs the same vessel documents to be sent again and again to agents and authorities. Checking that certificates are valid takes time, and a forged document can delay or endanger a transit.
Where it stands todayLive demo for four canals in seven languages. Registry, P&I and class services are simulated in the demo; real connections follow partner agreements.
How it works
Step by step
- PrepareThe ship operator or agent opens one transit file for the voyage.
- CheckVessel registry (IMO), P&I insurance and class certificates are checked through connected services.
- ApproveThe canal authority reviews the file and approves the transit.
- TrackVessel position can be followed through an AIS tracking link.
- VerifyEvery document and approval keeps a fingerprint on the ledger for later checks.
