India Port Duty Basics
Readiness training. Guarding.Tech does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
This is a knowledge course. It is not ISPS Code training and is not recognised by any port or maritime authority.
India's port and shipping laws were rewritten in 2025 and 2026. A new security body for ports was set up in June 2026. More rules are still being written. A guard who learnt the old names will hear new ones at the gate.
This unit tells you what the law said as checked on 8, 10 and 27 October 2026. It will change. Your port's orders come first.
Focus: know who is who at an Indian port. Know what a private guard may not do. Know that this course is not official port security training.
