The Kochi Port Chairman, Mr Paul Antony, will inaugurate the new single-window facility for the port customers on Thursday at the Traffic Operations Office premises.

The facility will cater to the issue of daily wharf entry pass and will act as a one-stop service for permission and billing for the pre-stage and clearance activity for containers and the related services including grounding, reefer and storage.

The facility will also cater to the documentation of all cargo-related activities at Mattanchery wharf, Ernakulam wharf and oil tanker berths.
