Background

Amigoz Singapore Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore shipping agency incorporated on 27 November 2019 under business number 201940121Z. OFAC and the company's contact page record the same address at 2 Leng Kee Road, Thye Hong Centre, Singapore. The company operates as a shore-side provider for visiting and transiting vessels.

Amigoz lists port agency, crew changes, vessel repair, freight management, bunkering, ship-to-ship transfers and vessel husbandry among its services. Port agents coordinate clearances, suppliers and crew needs during a ship's call. Bunkering and repair work support the vessel itself, while freight management concerns the movement of cargo. This service range covers both routine port calls and broader voyage logistics, without making the agency the registered owner of every vessel or cargo it handles.

Key Issues
Agency sanctions

Sanctions follow maritime support claims

On 21 October 2026, OFAC designated Amigoz Singapore under Executive Order 13902 for operating in Iran's petroleum sector. Treasury alleged that Amigoz acted as agent for an Iranian light-crude shipment and provided bunkering services to the tanker Zixuan.

For Amigoz, the sanctions case centres on ordinary maritime agency services used within a trade network that Treasury links to Iran. Port agency and bunkering can support a voyage without making the agent the vessel or cargo owner. OFAC based the administrative sanctions action on those attributed claims.
