Vessel Credit Clause Samples

The Vessel Credit clause establishes the financial and operational standards that a vessel must meet to be considered acceptable for a charter or contract. Typically, this clause requires the vessel owner to provide evidence of the vessel’s creditworthiness, such as proof of insurance, compliance with regulatory requirements, or a satisfactory history of performance. By setting these criteria, the clause ensures that only reliable and financially stable vessels are used, thereby reducing the risk of default or operational failure during the contract period.
