Thilafushi Begins Container Clearance as Port Relocation Gets Under Way

Maldives Ports Limited has begun a full-container-load clearance service at Thilafushi as commercial port services start transferring there, easing pressure on Malé Commercial Harbour, which has run at three times its intended capacity since 2015. The government targets completion of Thilafushi Port by November 2027, with the new harbour expected to expand port services fourfold.
