Maritime Transport. 1. The Parties undertake to move towards the goal of unre- stricted access to the international maritime market and traffic based on fair competition on a commercial basis, in accordance with the provisions of this Article.
(a) The above provision does not prejudice the rights and obligations arising from the United Nations Convention Code of Conduct for Liner Conferences as applicable to one or the other Party to this Agreement.

(a) abstain from introducing cargo-sharing clauses into future bilateral agreements with non-member countries concerning dry and liquid bulk and liner trade, except where, in exceptional circumstances, with regard to liner trade, shipping companies from one or the other Party to this Agreement would not otherwise have an effective opportunity to engage in trade to and from the non- member country concerned;

3. For the purpose of this Article, access to the international maritime market shall include, inter alia, the right for inter- national maritime transport providers of each Party to arrange door-to-door transport services involving a sea leg, and to this effect to directly contract with local providers of transport modes other than maritime transport on the territ...

Maritime Transport. Japan has committed international transport of freight and passengers, which means that Singapore-based shipping companies are free to call at Japanese ports. Japan has also made commitments for maritime freight forwarding and non-discriminatory access to inland transport services (internal waterways transport, rail and road transport). With these enhanced commitments from Japan, Singapore shipping companies are now assured of unrestricted access to the world’s second most important maritime nation. In addition, Singapore shipping companies can also provide integrated logistics services such as trucking, and delivery of the cargo that they have carried. Our companies in the maritime and logistics sectors will be able to benefit from this enhanced commitment.
Maritime Transport. The Contracting Parties shall promote efficient, safe and secure maritime transport operations. Co-operation between the Contracting Parties shall aim to reach convergence towards operating standards and policies on maritime transport of the European Union, in particular by implementing the acts set out in Annex I by the South East European Parties.
