In this talk, we shall discuss some surface transport properties of stationary localized configurations of relativistic fluids. This analysis would be performed with the help of equilibrium effective action for the shape-field, characterising the location of the surface. We will consider both ordinary fluids and superfluids and demonstrate how the bulk transport coefficients influence surface transport. In particular, we shall obtain several interesting parity-odd surface effects.
