We would like to thank the Catalan newspaper El Nacional.cat<\/a>\u00a0 for the collaboration of our colleagues Jose Antonio Dominguez Castro<\/a> and Zuberoa Elorriaga<\/a> for their article on stowaways.<\/p>\n

Specifically, the Catalan newspaper reports on the arrival of stowaways in the Port of Barcelona on different ships, which poses a challenge for the different actors affected by this eventuality. Although the newspaper points out that the arrival of stowaways in the Port of Barcelona is scarce, it confirms that this does not mean that this phenomenon does not exist, but that it generally does not transcend despite the fact that it is a reality which, in the 21st century, is still present in maritime life and in the different Spanish and European ports. According to data from the Ministry of the Interior to which the publication had access, between 2016 and 2024 a total of 137 stowaways arrived at the Port of Barcelona: 11 (2016); 20 (2017); 15 (2018); 47 (2019); 15 (2020); 13 (2021); 9 (2022); 3 (2023), and 4 (2024). The authorities state that their provenance is unknown and point out that \u2018they have embarked through unregulated procedures unknown to the ship’s captain\u2019<\/em>.<\/p>\n

As El Nacional.cat points out, our firm, in collaboration with the shipowners involved, the responsible authorities, shipping agents and P\/I clubs, has managed complex situations arising from this reality in Europe, which undoubtedly always pose a challenge for our team. In this sense, our partner Jos\u00e9 Antonio Dom\u00ednguez<\/a> , a lawyer from the Algeciras office<\/a> with accredited experience in cases of management of stowaways arriving at the Port of Algeciras, explained in detail to the newspaper the multiple steps and actions that must be taken with all the agents affected once stowaways are detained on a ship on its arrival at a Spanish port, without forgetting the human factor that all this entails, as we are talking about people in an irregular and precarious situation who must be treated with respect and humanity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
