Rodbyhavn Port is the seaport of Rodbyhavn, in the city of Rodbyhavnin Denmark. Overseas routes include Europe, Port code is DKROD.
Rodbyhavn Port, Denmark
Rodbyhavn Port is a coastal port on the southwestern shore of Lolland, adjacent to the Fehmarn Belt. Its operating profile is centered on bulk and general cargo, including grain, gravel and oil, together with passenger, Ro-Ro/passenger, dredging and crew-boat activity. The port is therefore better assessed as a regional multipurpose and ferry-oriented port than as a conventional container gateway. The supplied port record reports approximately 125,000 tonnes of cargo and 5,000,000 passengers annually, with recorded vessel limits of up to 152 metres in length, 6.1 metres draught and 4,320 tonnes deadweight. Our service team uses these parameters for initial routing assessment only; berth acceptance, sailing windows and cargo restrictions must be confirmed for each shipment.

Key Highlights
Regional multipurpose role
Suitable assessment focus is bulk, general cargo and project-related movements rather than default container-terminal routing.
Fehmarn Belt position
The location supports cross-border road and ferry-related planning, while construction, border and traffic conditions may affect schedules.
Draft-sensitive planning
The supplied 6.1 m maximum draught requires confirmation against vessel particulars, tide, cargo density and the actual berth window.
Passenger traffic matters
Passenger and Ro-Ro activity can create vehicle, security and terminal-flow constraints during peak periods.
Facilities & Services
- Bulk handling: The supplied port description identifies grain, gravel and oil as handled cargoes. Loading method, dust controls, tank arrangements and available shore equipment must be checked before booking.
- General cargo: General cargo vessels and dredgers are part of the reported traffic profile; lifting capacity, cargo dimensions and stevedoring arrangements require case-by-case confirmation.
- Ro-Ro and passenger operations: Passenger vessels and Ro-Ro/passenger ships are regularly associated with the port. Cargo units, vehicles and accompanied freight should be accepted only against the relevant terminal procedure.
- Storage and staging: Do not assume container yard, reefer plugs, bonded storage or long-term open storage. Our team can request space, handling and security arrangements from the local operator before cargo release.
- Inland connection: Road collection and delivery planning is central for regional cargo. Vehicle dimensions, axle weights, ferry interfaces and appointment requirements should be confirmed before dispatch.
Routes & Logistics Timing
- Trade direction: Shipments may be evaluated against Danish, German and wider Baltic/European corridors, but actual service availability depends on cargo type, vessel acceptance and the selected ferry or short-sea connection.
- Multimodal structure: A practical routing may combine short-sea or Ro-Ro movement with road legs. For non-containerized cargo, direct port-to-port or charter solutions may be more appropriate than a standard liner booking.
- Time drivers: The final schedule is affected by port acceptance, sailing windows, passenger traffic, weather, draft restrictions, border procedures, road congestion and any Fehmarn Belt-related traffic arrangements.
- Planning rule: Our service team provides a shipment-specific schedule only after confirming vessel space, terminal cut-off, customs status, cargo dimensions and inland collection requirements; no generic transit time should be treated as guaranteed.
Hinterland & Key Cargo
Lolland and nearby Danish areas
The port’s natural hinterland is regional Lolland and connected Danish markets, especially for road-delivered bulk, general cargo and ferry-linked freight.
Bulk commodities
Grain, gravel and oil are identified in the supplied port profile. Density, moisture, contamination, loading sequence and environmental controls should be reviewed before fixing the vessel.
Marine and infrastructure cargo
Dredgers and crew boats indicate a practical association with marine works and support movements; dimensions, lifting points and project permits are important.
Passenger-linked freight
Ro-Ro vehicles and accompanied cargo may use the regional ferry ecosystem, subject to operator rules, security screening and available sailing capacity.
Operations & Compliance
- Booking and cut-off: There is no universal cut-off that can be safely applied to every Rodbyhavn movement. Confirm terminal acceptance, vessel nomination, gate-in or quay delivery time and document cut-off in writing.
- Dangerous goods: Oil and other regulated cargoes require the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, quantity, packaging and transport document. Submit declarations before operational acceptance; never rely on a general-cargo booking.
- Customs status: Prepare commercial invoices, packing lists, transport documents, origin information and any required transit or export references before cargo arrival. Our team coordinates the customs route according to the cargo’s actual Union and non-Union status.
- Inspection and inland delivery: Customs or security inspection may cause extra handling and waiting time. For oversized, heavy or bulk cargo, verify road permits, axle limits, vehicle suitability, loading appointments and cargo securing requirements before dispatch.
Shipping Tips
- Send our service team the cargo description, HS code, package or unit dimensions, gross weight, centre of gravity, draught requirement and loading method before requesting a firm solution.
- For grain, gravel or oil, confirm quantity tolerances, contamination controls, sampling requirements, shore equipment, spill prevention and applicable safety documentation with the receiving operation.
- For Ro-Ro or passenger-linked freight, provide vehicle or unit dimensions, registration details where applicable, dangerous-goods status and whether the cargo is accompanied or unaccompanied.
- Keep an alternative routing through another Danish, German or Baltic port under review when draft, vessel size, passenger peaks or local acceptance makes the first option unsuitable; the alternative must be re-priced and re-confirmed rather than assumed.
Frequently Asked Questions
The supplied port record shows zero listed FCL, LCL and automotive service counts and describes a multipurpose, bulk and passenger-oriented profile. Our team will first check whether the requested carrier, equipment and terminal handling are genuinely available before proposing a container booking.
The supplied record reports a maximum recorded length of 152 metres, draught of 6.1 metres and deadweight of 4,320 tonnes. These are reference limits, not an automatic acceptance guarantee; vessel, berth, cargo and operational conditions must be approved for the specific call.
Yes, bulk grain, gravel and oil are identified among the cargoes handled. Acceptance depends on cargo specification, environmental and safety controls, shore facilities, quantity and the nominated vessel.
Provide complete IMDG or other applicable dangerous-goods information before booking. Our team will seek terminal and carrier acceptance, but the shipment must not be delivered before the declared documentation and handling instructions are confirmed.
Not reliably from the port code alone. We quote an indicative schedule only after checking the selected service, sailing window, cargo acceptance, customs status, inland leg and any traffic or weather constraints.
Data Sources & Verification Boundary
The port code, name, country, city, coordinates, cargo profile, annual figures and vessel parameters in this module are based on the supplied DKROD port record. Operational details that can change—such as berth acceptance, terminal procedures, schedules, equipment, cut-offs, charges and local restrictions—must be verified for the individual shipment.
