They enforce laws on waterways, ports, and coastal areas, addressing issues such as smuggling, illegal fishing, and maritime accidents. Their duties often include search and rescue operations, patrolling, and responding to emergencies at sea. These agencies work closely with other organizations, such as the Coast Guard and naval forces, to ensure effective maritime governance. They play a crucial role in protecting marine resources and ensuring compliance with international maritime laws, contributing to the overall safety of maritime activities.
