The Groningen Seaports harbour dues are mentioned in the booklet 'Nautical Directory & Harbour Tariffs 2010'. All kinds of tariffs and dues like harbour dues for sea-going vessels, harbour dues for inland vessels, berth dues, harbour towage, mooring and unmooring, pilotage and VTS dues, and deliveries and services by port authority are reported in 'Nautical Directory & Harbour Tariffs 2010' and can be required by contacting Mrs. Marjolein Zwerver (+31 (0)6-51416977) or Mr. Martijn Pilon (+31 (0)6-51027098).

Unique rate system

Groningen Seaports has the cheapest seaports of northwest Europe. In its ports, Groningen Seaports utilizes a unique rate system: ships pay only per tonne of transhipped goods, and not – like in other ports - on basis of the gross tonnage of a ship. This makes both ports highly competitive in terms of rates. Moreover, there are hardly any delays in the ports.

Prices of industrial sites

The land prices of the industrial sites around the Groningen Seaports are sharp, while lots of land can be both leased and bought. For more information on the prices of the industrial sites in Delfzijl and Eemshaven, please contact the account managers of Groningen Seaports.
