Government Decided to Approve Text Opening Cabotage Market to Ships from Other Countries

Among other points, the PL 4199/2020 released by the government progressively allows the use of foreign ships in cabotage navigation without the obligation to contract the construction of vessels in Brazilian shipyards. With the publication of the new government legislation, companies will be able to charter a bareboat, that is, rent an empty ship for use in cabotage navigation.

Foreign Ships Will Be Released One per Year by the Government

Under the terms of the cabotage matter, after one year of the law’s enactment, there may be two ships; in the second year, three ships; and in the third year of validity, four vessels.

From then on, the quantity will have no restrictions according to the government. However, safety conditions defined in regulations must be observed.

It is time to use the same commercial power to provide even more structure and efficiency to the use of our coast. A major reason for this is to note that, even with continental dimensions, 70% of the country’s population lives within 200 kilometers of the coast.
