Notice of Intended Use

By accessing this website, and information contained or described, you acknowledge your agreement with and understanding of the following terms of use.

This tidal window viewer (LTTP viewer) has been developed by Port of Rotterdam Authority (“PoR”) through the Harbour Master Division(“DHMR”) for the information of those persons (each an “Interested Party”) who are considering in visiting the Port of Rotterdam with a seagoing vessel.

The LTTP viewer is a tool for the Port of Rotterdam with which the user can obtain a horizontal tidal window based on the destination, vessel dimensions and astronomic water level information. It is an easy to use tool which gives a best guess prediction of the possible tidal window.

The advice (‘Advice’) generated by the LTTP viewer is based on astronomical information available to PoR as at the date of the Advice. The Advice contains selected information and does not purport to be all-inclusive or to contain all the information relevant to visit the Port of Rotterdam with a seagoing vessel. While using the LTTP viewer, please note that actual events or results (because of weather conditions or river discharge) may differ materially. From 24 hours before arrival or departure an updated tidal window will be available through the Harbour Coordination Center.

Although PoR believes the expectations reflected in the Advice are good, a visit to the Port of Rotterdam based on the Advice involves uncertainties, and no assurance can be given that actual circumstances will be consistent with these Advices. No Advice generated by the tidal window viewer is a promise or representation as to the future and Advices may prove to be incorrect.

The time windows generated by the LTTP viewer do not cover all the relevant components that make up the nautical admission policy of the Port of Rotterdam. Each Interested Party is responsible for its own assessment of entering the Port of Rotterdam and the Advice should be verified with the Harbour Coordination Center.

The Port of Rotterdam Authority, and the Chief Harbour Master of DHMR as the responsible authority, reserves the right to prohibit access to the Port of Rotterdam at any time. Every user of the Port of Rotterdam is required, before entering the Port of Rotterdam, to report to and comply with the instructions of PoR as set out in the Port Information Guide.
