SURVEYING & INSPECTION IN BANGLADESH · SINCE 1981
Trusted by Banks, Underwriters, Shippers and Buyers – Across Border
Independent superintendence, survey, sampling, testing and consultancy — evidence-based findings from every port and gateway of Bangladesh, delivered to international standards worldwide.
WHO WE ARE
Independent eyes on the ground since 1981
When cargo changes hands, a claim is contested or an asset is financed, someone has to establish the facts. Since 1981, that has been our job. Baltic Control (BD) Ltd. is an independent inspection and surveying company headquartered in Dhaka, with engineers, master mariners, quality inspectors, auditors, cotton controllers, valuators and loss adjusters at every major port and gateway of Bangladesh.
Our findings owe nothing to any party’s interest — which is why BCBD’s Certificate of Inspection is accepted by governments, banks, underwriters, liner operators and trading houses. Through reciprocal arrangements with international inspection companies, we work across the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Australia.
