Goals / Remit
Our vision
In the KVNR’s vision, the Dutch shipping industry should be a modern industry with an excellent performance record and should play a prominent role in a number of European and/or global market segments and at the same time manages to be the hub of the Dutch maritime cluster.
The shipping register of the Netherlands is a leading one within Europe, in terms of growth, standards and sustainability of the ships registered, as well as service and user-friendliness.
Our mission
By means of collective actions, the KVNR promotes an internationally competitive business climate for shipowners in the Netherlands. Representation of collective interests is achieved by playing a guiding role in future developments in the shipping industry, both at national and international level. Individually, we offer support to our members by advising them in matters of business climate, the maritime labour market and sustainability.Main EU files targeted
