طلب شراء – Pakistan
Recycling yards want tonnage but owners are holding ships back, so offers have risen (India up to USD 30/LDT in three weeks). Cash buyers and owners of older vessels can get good prices now. Bangladesh is also pushing to 100+ green-certified yards (Daily Observer, 1 Sep 2026).

What to do الخطوة التالية
This buyer needs material. Offer through its official procurement or supplier channel with grade, tonnage, location and certificates.
Compliance الامتثال
Hazardous material. Handling needs a licensed operator (in Saudi Arabia a MWAN waste-management licence; elsewhere the local environmental permit). Cross-border moves of hazardous waste fall under the Basel Convention (prior informed consent). Check export and import rules for each country involved. This is not legal advice.
