Immigration clearance for this ship was secured after four days.

It is anticipated that the fourth ship, Zhan Hua-15, will arrive at Vizhinjam by December 15. This ship will bring two ship-to-shore cranes and three-yard cranes. Zhan Hua-15 was the first ship to reach the port in October, and it is scheduled to reach the port in December. It is noteworthy that there was no delay this time in obtaining clearance for the crew members to land at the port.
