Port Overview

Moji Port, UN/LOCODE JPMOJ, is a Japanese seaport in Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, positioned on the northern coast of Kyushu beside the Kanmon Strait. It forms part of the Kitakyushu port complex and is associated with container, bulk, petroleum and general-cargo handling. For international freight planning, Moji is relevant to cargo moving through the Kanmon area and the wider northern Kyushu industrial market. Our platform uses JPMOJ as the port reference and confirms the actual terminal, vessel acceptance, documentation cut-offs and inland arrangements before booking.

Key Highlights

Strategic location: access to the Kanmon Strait places the port at an important maritime gateway between Kyushu and Honshu.
Mixed-cargo capability: the supplied port record identifies facilities for container, bulk, petroleum and general cargo operations.
Vessel and bridge constraints: the supplied record lists a maximum size of 14,000 DWT and a Kanmon Bridge air-draft reference of 61 m; final acceptance must be checked for the nominated berth and sailing.
Container planning: the supplied record indicates a container-berth reference of LOA 270 m, 10.8 m high-water draught and 40,000 GT.
Terminal selection matters: Moji and Shin-Moji should not be treated as interchangeable in booking instructions, trucking plans or customs documents.

Facilities & Services

Container handling
Container services are identified in the port record. Equipment availability, reefer plugs, empty-container release and terminal receiving windows require confirmation against the actual booking.

General and project cargo
The port is described as capable of handling general cargo and bulk cargo. Heavy-lift, out-of-gauge and project shipments require advance review of berth, lifting, lashing and road-routing conditions.

Petroleum and bulk cargo
Petroleum and bulk movements normally involve cargo-specific safety controls, terminal acceptance procedures and documentation beyond standard container bookings.

Road and local distribution
Kitakyushu's industrial hinterland supports road-based collection and delivery planning. Our service team confirms vehicle type, delivery appointment, chassis requirements and any site restrictions.

Customs and inspection coordination
Import, export and inspection handling is arranged according to Japanese customs and terminal procedures. Cargo status should be checked before arranging final delivery.

Storage and transshipment
Storage, demurrage, detention, empty return and possible transshipment arrangements are cargo- and terminal-specific; they are quoted only after the actual facility and carrier conditions are confirmed.

Routes & Transit Times

Typical planning directions include Japan domestic distribution, Northeast Asian trade and connections involving mainland East Asia. The available service depends on the carrier, terminal and sailing plan selected.
Where a direct service is unavailable, cargo may require a regional transshipment or a connection through another Japanese or Northeast Asian gateway. Our platform verifies the routing rather than assuming direct loading at JPMOJ.
Transit time is affected by vessel schedule, Kanmon Strait navigation conditions, berth windows, transshipment sequence, customs release, terminal receiving cut-off and inland delivery appointments.
For LCL cargo, consolidation warehouse receiving, deconsolidation and destination customs processing may add time beyond the ocean leg. For FCL cargo, equipment release and empty-return instructions should be confirmed before dispatch.

Transit times, sailing frequency and carrier coverage are not guaranteed on this page. Our service team provides a route-specific schedule after receiving origin, cargo details, shipment mode and required delivery location.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Hinterland: the immediate logistics focus is Kitakyushu and northern Kyushu, with onward movement subject to domestic trucking, ferry, rail or connecting-port arrangements.
Industrial cargo: the wider Kitakyushu area is associated with manufacturing and heavy-industry supply chains, making machinery, components, industrial materials and general cargo relevant planning categories.
Bulk and petroleum: these cargoes require terminal-specific acceptance, safety documentation, tank or handling arrangements and, where applicable, dangerous-goods review.
Containerized cargo: packaged manufactured goods, parts and mixed commercial cargo may be handled through the applicable container facility, subject to carrier and terminal acceptance.
Oversized shipments: dimensions, gross weight, centre of gravity, lifting points and the final Japanese delivery address should be provided before quotation.

Operations & Compliance

Cut-off control: booking cut-off, VGM submission, SI deadline, terminal receiving cut-off and customs filing deadline can differ. Our team obtains the operative deadlines from the nominated carrier or terminal and does not rely on a generic port closing time.
Dangerous goods: provide the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, flash point where applicable, package details and SDS. Acceptance, segregation and documentation must be approved before the container is delivered.
Customs and inspection: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading data, origin information and any regulated-product documents must be consistent. Customs examination or document queries may change release and delivery timing.
Inland delivery: verify container weight, vehicle access, delivery appointments, road restrictions, site unloading equipment and empty-return location. Heavy or oversized cargo may require route surveys or permits.

Shipping Tips

State JPMOJ / Moji precisely in the inquiry and distinguish it from Shin-Moji or another Kitakyushu facility; request the terminal name before cargo dispatch.
Submit cargo dimensions, gross weight, package type, commodity description, HS information and any DG or OOG details at quotation stage so that equipment and handling feasibility can be reviewed.
For FCL, obtain the carrier's equipment release and empty-return instructions before trucking. For LCL, confirm the consolidation warehouse receiving deadline and cargo packing requirements.
Keep a routing alternative available through another suitable gateway or connecting service when the requested vessel, terminal window or cargo acceptance is not available. Our team compares the alternative after checking total inland, handling and transit implications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Moji the same as Shin-Moji?

No. They are separate port locations within the Kitakyushu port area. The booking party should use the exact UN/LOCODE, terminal and delivery instructions shown on the confirmed shipping documents. Our team verifies this before release of the booking.

Can all container cargo be booked directly to JPMOJ?

Not necessarily. Service availability depends on the carrier, vessel schedule, terminal acceptance and cargo type. We confirm whether the shipment is direct, connected through another gateway or requires an alternative port before quoting a transit plan.

What information is needed for a dangerous-goods shipment?

Provide the UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, package details, quantity, flash point where relevant and the applicable declaration or safety documents. Final acceptance is subject to carrier and terminal approval.

How should oversized or heavy cargo be arranged?

Send final dimensions, gross weight, lifting points, centre of gravity, packing photographs and the delivery address. Our service team checks berth handling, equipment, road access, permits and appointment requirements before confirming the plan.

Are the displayed port limits guaranteed for every vessel?

No. The listed limits are reference information from the supplied port record. Actual acceptance depends on berth, tide, vessel particulars, bridge clearance, navigation conditions, cargo and terminal approval.

Data Sources & Provenance

Port code, name, coordinates, cargo description and the reference limits shown above are taken from the supplied JPMOJ port record. The figures of approximately 89,000,000 tonnes annual cargo volume, maximum 14,000 DWT, container-berth reference of LOA 270 m, 10.8 m high-water draught and 40,000 GT, plus the 61 m Kanmon Bridge air-draft reference, are reproduced as record-level reference data and should be reconfirmed with the relevant terminal, port authority or carrier before operational use.

For regulatory and institutional cross-checking, our service team uses official Japanese government and Kitakyushu public-sector information where applicable: mlit.go.jp and city.kitakyushu.lg.jp. Japanese customs procedures should be checked through customs.go.jp. These domains support general verification; vessel acceptance, terminal cut-offs, charges, schedules and cargo-specific restrictions remain subject to the latest operational confirmation.
