Beirut Port Designates Saturday as Official Working Day Starting November 14

The Beirut Port Management and Investment Authority, reaffirming its constant commitment to accelerating logistical operations and meeting local market needs, particularly in light of the approaching holidays, announced that it has been decided to designate Saturday as an official and regular working day within the port, effective from Saturday, November 14, 2026.

This step comes under the directives of Minister of Public Works and Transport Faiz Rasamny, in cooperation with the Customs Administration to speed up the pace of goods release operations throughout the week, and in coordination with Minister of Interior and Municipalities Brigadier General Ahmad Al-Hajjar to regulate the traffic of trucks entering and exiting Beirut Port on Saturdays.

Accordingly, the Port Management requested all stakeholders and relevant parties to take the necessary measures and precautions to keep pace with this decision and benefit from the port's services during Saturdays, for the interest of work and the national economy.
