Announcing the new digital services, Captain Mohamed Al Shamisi, CEO of Abu Dhabi Ports, stated that, “this achievement is a major milestone that highlights Abu Dhabi Ports’ continued commitment to offer innovative and competitive solutions to our customers and stakeholders. Our Port Community System is the first of its kind in the Middle East, and is optimized to provide efficiency for all the procedures that expedite the movement of vessels in and out of the ports, hence ensuring robust and smooth operations. With the completion of this phase of digitalization, we have ensured the streamlining and facilitating of import and export activities at our commercial ports, further boosting Abu Dhabi’s position as a leading maritime trade hub for the region”.
