Safety fee

The safety fee applies to vessels in waters that are monitored by a Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) centre.

Revenues from the safety fee cover labour costs and operating expenses at the VTS centres at Brevik, Fedje, Horten and Kvitsøy.

The VTS centres provide information services, navigation assistance, and regulate traffic in order to reduce the risk of maritime accidents and ensure an efficient traffic flow.
