The Incheon Port Authority (www.icpa.or.kr, President Lee Kyung-Gyu) announced on the 2^nd that it would temporarily support cargo shipping operations at the Yeonan Pier 2 berth in Incheon Port, which has been inactive since the suspension of the Incheon-Jeju passenger route earlier in January of this year. The temporary measure aims to facilitate the smooth transport of essential goods and other maritime cargo between Incheon and Jeju.

IPA plans to operate the Incheon Port Yeonan Pier 2 berth* for cargo shipping operations between Incheon and Jeju until the resumption of the Incheon-Jeju passenger route, or due to other significant circumstantial changes such as the reallocation of the coastal passenger ship berths.

* Incheon Port Yeonan Pier 2 Berth: The berth was previously used by the "Beyond Trust" vessel, which operated on the Incheon-Jeju passenger route.

Shipping companies interested in using the Incheon Port Yeonan Pier 2 Berth can review the details on application requirements and conditions through the announcements posted on the IPA website (https://www.icpa.or.kr) under “Public Communication” > “Notice”>“Latest News.”

The application period runs until the 13th of this month. Shipping companies must submit a port facility usage application form and other required documents through official correspondence. In the event of multiple applicants, IPA reserves the right to coordinate the berth usage schedule.
