Port Agent Rouen

Ship Agency Services at Rouen

Keep your vessels on schedule at this major Seine river port with agents based locally. VertomCory's Rouen office provides port agency and husbandry for grain, bulk, and tanker traffic navigating the 120-kilometre Seine from the sea at Honfleur to reach one of France's key agricultural export ports.

Rouen is France's leading grain export port and handles a large volume of agricultural commodities alongside petroleum products and other bulk cargoes at its riverside terminals.

Streamlined Grain and Bulk Operations at Rouen

Cut waiting time with Seine navigation coordination from Honfleur, river pilotage through the multiple locks and bridges along the river, and berthing at the relevant terminal managed by the local team.

French customs (douanes) clearance, cargo documentation, phytosanitary certification for grain exports, and Grand Port Maritime de Rouen authority formalities are completed ahead of arrival. The river's tidal lower section and the non-tidal upper section each require specific navigation coordination that the team manages.

Meet the requirements of French and EU customs, agricultural export, and environmental regulations throughout the call. Tanker calls at Seine-side petroleum facilities receive dedicated handling including MARPOL documentation, DREAL environmental notifications, and waste disposal through approved contractors.

Looking After Your Crew at Rouen

Call on specialist local support from agents based on the Seine. Crew changes are managed with immigration and transport, with Paris CDG approximately 90 minutes away for international crew rotations.
