Operational Activities of Port Forwarders

Abstract

Lučka špedicija je vrsta međunarodne špedicije koja se bavi organiziranjem otpreme i dopreme robe pomorskim prijevoznim sredstvima, a njezin cilj je ubrzavanje procesa dopreme i opreme robe u lukama te smanjenje prijevoznih troškova na najmanju moguću mjeru. Najvažnije osobe u međunarodnoj špediciji su upravo lučki špediteri što dokazuje činjenica da se najveća količina tereta prevozi pomorskim putovima, zbog čega i najveća količina robe prolazi kroz luke. Predmet ovog završnog rada je prikazati operativne poslove lučkog špeditera te njihovim objašnjenjem prikazati važnost lučkog špeditera u prometu robom. Važnost lučkog špeditera očitava se u odličnom poznavanju tehničko-tehnoloških i ekonomskopravnih mogućnosti, prava i obaveza svih sudionika koji su direktno ili indirektno povezani poslovima u pomorskim lukama.Port forwarding is a type of international freight forwarding which deals with the organization of shipping and delivering goods by maritime means of transport with the aim of accelerating the process of delivering goods and equipment in ports and reducing transport costs to the smallest possible extent.
