'''Seaborne Freight (UK) Limited''' is a company that plans to run roll-on roll-off ferries between [[Ramsgate]] in [[Kent]], UK and [[Ostend]] in [[Belgium]]. It was incorporated on 5 April 2017<ref></ref> but ferry operations have not commenced<ref></ref>.
On 22 December 2018 the company was awarded a £13.8 million contract to run ferry services between Ramsgate and Ostend to cope with the consequence of likely capacity constraints on the [[Dover]] - [[Calais]] route after 29 March 2019 in the case of a [[No deal Brexit]]. That the company has no ships and has never operated any ships, and that the [[Port of Ramsgate]] must be dredged before services can commence, raised questions as to whether due diligence checks had been undertaken before the award of the contract<ref></ref>. The award of the contract without prior publication of a call for competition in the [[Official Journal of the European Union]] was justified by the "extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the Directive"<ref></ref>.
The Ramsgate - Ostend route was last operated by [[Transeuropa Ferries]] until 2013.
