Permit for maritime container vehicles
Updated: July 2024, 3
What is a marine container vehicle?
A marine container is a semi-trailer-coupled vehicle that is used to load import and export cargo, and is used to transport cargo in the same condition as when it was exported or imported, without being transshipped within the country.

How to apply for special vehicle permission for head semi-trailer
There are two types of applications for special vehicle traffic permits: regular applications and comprehensive applications.
A normal application refers to an application for one vehicle.
In the case of marine container vehicles, if there is more than one head or chassis, a comprehensive application is required.
Comprehensive application can be made at once only if the chassis length and load are the same.
Also, if the length of the chassis or the load is different, separate applications are required.
For example, if there are 3 heads and 3 chassis (one each for 20ft, 40ft, and 45ft),
3 heads + 20ft
3 heads + 40ft
3 heads + 45ft
3 applications are required.
Recently, there seems to be a multi-chassis trailer that has a chassis that expands and contracts, but in this case as well, an application is required for each length.
Application for outbound and return trips
Also, if the outbound trip is loaded and the return trip is empty, separate applications are required for the outbound and return trips.
Vehicles are inspected for loaded status (outbound trip) and empty status (return trip), and traffic conditions are attached. In this case, both permits must be carried in the vehicle.
If you submit one application for both outbound and return trips, both routes will be examined as loaded and traffic conditions will be attached.
