{{main|Rosyth - Zeebrugge ferry service}}
Starting in 2002, an overnight [[ferry]] service linked Rosyth with [[Zeebrugge]] in [[Belgium]]. This service was discontinued by [[Superfast Ferries]] in September 2008, but recommenced in May 2009 under new operator [[Norfolkline]].<ref>{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/edinburgh_and_east/7789696.stm | work=BBC News | title=Zeebrugge ferry to restart in May | date=2008-12-18 | access-date=2010-05-22}}</ref> They ran three sailings a week in each direction.

Norfolkline was taken over by [[DFDS Seaways]], who subsequently reduced the service to freight-only, three sailings a week in each direction.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://freight.dfdsseaways.com/dfds_ferries/north_sea_ferries/rosyth_zeebrugge_ferries/ |title=Rosyth – Zeebrugge &#124; Routes & Schedules – DFDS |publisher=Freight.dfdsseaways.com |access-date=2016-02-27}}</ref> The service was terminated in 2018 following a fire aboard one of the ships.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.scotsman.com/business/rosyth-to-zeebrugge-ferry-service-axed-1-4729040|title = Rosyth to Zeebrugge ferry service axed| date=23 April 2018 }}</ref>

In June 2022, it was reported that talks were underway to restore the ferry route, with [[DFDS Seaways|DFDS]] operating a freight service from early 2023, with passenger service expected by summer 2023, however as of 2024 this is yet to start.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-06-16 |title=Ferry between Scotland and continental Europe set to resume in 2023 |url=https://news.stv.tv/east-central/sole-ferry-link-between-scotland-and-continental-europe-set-to-resume-in-2023 |access-date=2022-08-26 |website=STV News |language=en-GB}}</ref>
