About This Seaport
Operated by the Port of Kristiansand authority, Norway's southernmost traffic port handles around 100,000 TEU a year along roughly 3,000 metres of quay at the mouth of the Otra river. Its terminals cover containers, general and project cargo, offshore supply and cruise, alongside wet and dry bulk. For forwarders, the defining feature is the ferry axis to Hirtshals in Denmark, run by Color Line and Fjord Line, which carries almost as much freight as the container terminal; a further link reaches Eemshaven in the Netherlands. Accompanied and unaccompanied trailers thus reach the European mainland within a few hours. Inland connections run via the E18/E39 roads and the Sørlandet railway towards Oslo and Stavanger. Customs follow Norwegian procedures outside the EU customs union. Shippers seeking alternatives for boxed cargo can look to Oslo, Larvik and Stavanger.
