1.1 These Guidelines supersede the guidelines adopted by resolution A.997(25), as amended by resolution A.1020(26), and resolution MEPC.180(59), and take account of the Harmonized System of Survey and Certification in the following instruments:

International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974 (SOLAS 1974) and as modified by the Protocol of 1988 relating thereto, as amended (SOLAS 74/88);
International Convention on Load Lines, 1966 (LLC 1966) and as modified by the Protocol of 1988 relating thereto, as amended (LLC 66/88);
International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973, as modified by the Protocol of 1978 relating thereto, and as further amended by the Protocol of 1997, as amended (MARPOL);
International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk, as amended (IBC Code);
International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk, as amended (IGC Code);
Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk, as amended (BCH Code).

1.2 These Guidelines take into account amendments to statutory instruments which have entered into force up to and including 31 December 2011 (see appendix 1) and contain the following:

Survey Guidelines under the 1974 SOLAS Convention, as modified by the Protocol of 1988 relating thereto (annex 1);
Survey Guidelines under the 1966 Load Line Convention, as modified by the Protocol of 1988 relating thereto (annex 2);
Survey Guidelines under the MARPOL Convention (annex 3); and
Survey Guidelines under mandatory Codes (annex 4).

1.3 The harmonized system, a diagrammatic arrangement of which is given in appendix 2, provides for:

a one-year standard interval between surveys, based on initial, annual, intermediate, periodical and renewal surveys, as appropriate, except for MARPOL Annex IV which is based on initial and renewal surveys;
a scheme providing the necessary flexibility to execute each survey, with provision for:

completion of the renewal survey within 3 months before the expiry date of the existing certificate with no loss of its period of validity; and
a "time window" of 6 months – from 3 months before to 3 months after the anniversary date of the certificate for annual, intermediate and periodical surveys;

a maximum period of validity of five years for all cargo ship certificates;
a maximum period of validity of 12 months for the Passenger Ship Safety Certificate;
a system for the extension of certificates limited to three months, enabling a ship to complete its voyage, or one month for ships engaged on short voyages;
when an extension has been granted, the period of validity of the new certificate starting from the expiry date of the existing certificate before its extension;
a flexible system for inspection of the outside of the ship's bottom on the following conditions:

a minimum of two inspections during any five-year period of validity of the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate or the Cargo Ship Safety Certificate; and
the interval between any two such inspections should not exceed 36 months;

a Cargo Ship Safety Certificate under SOLAS 74/88, as an alternative to separate Cargo Ship Safety Construction, Cargo Ship Safety Equipment and Cargo Ship Safety Radio Certificates;
a flexible system concerning the frequency and the period of validity of certificates, subject to the minimum pattern of surveys being maintained.

1.4 In implementing the harmonized system, the following principal changes made to the survey and certification requirements of SOLAS 74/88 have been taken into account:

unscheduled inspections are no longer included and annual surveys are mandatory for cargo ships;
intervals between the periodical surveys of equipment covered by the Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate are alternately two and three years instead of two years;
intermediate surveys are required for all ships under the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate;
inspection of the outside of the ship's bottom is required for all cargo ships;
intermediate surveys for the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate are held within three months of either the second or third anniversary date;
all cargo ship certificates may be issued for any period of validity up to and including five years;
there is provision for a Cargo Ship Safety Certificate;
the extension provisions have been reduced from five months to three months to enable a ship to complete its voyage and the extension for one month for a period of grace is limited to ships engaged on short voyages.

1.5 With regard to LLC 66/88, the principal changes to the requirements for survey and certification are the introduction of similar extension provisions (see 1.4.8) and linking of the period of validity of the new certificate to the expiry date of the previous certificate (see 1.3.6).

1.6 With regard to MARPOL and the IBC, IGC and BCH Codes, the main changes are the linking of the period of validity of the new certificate to the expiry date of the previous certificate (see 1.3.6), the holding of the intermediate survey within three months of the second or third anniversary date and the introduction of the same extension provisions (see 1.4.8).

2 -Types of survey

The types of survey used in the harmonized system are as follows:

(I)	2.1	An initial survey is a complete inspection before a ship is put into service of all the items relating to a particular certificate, to ensure that the relevant requirements are complied with and that these items are satisfactory for the service for which the ship is intended.
(P)	2.2	A periodical survey is an inspection of the items relating to the particular certificate to ensure that they are in a satisfactory condition and fit for the service for which the ship is intended.
(R)	2.3	A renewal survey is the same as a periodical survey but also leads to the issue of a new certificate.
(In)	2.3	An intermediate survey is an inspection of specified items relevant to the particular certificate to ensure that they are in a satisfactory condition and fit for the service for which the ship is intended.
(A)	2.5	An annual survey is a general inspection of the items relating to the particular certificate to ensure that they have been maintained and remain satisfactory for the service for which the ship is intended.

03 Application and arrangement of the guidelines

Ingangsdatum: 30-11-2011

3 - Application and arrangement of the guidelines

3.1 The Guidelines provide a general framework upon which Administrations will be able to base their arrangements for carrying out surveys. It is recognized that survey provisions contained in the Guidelines are not necessarily applicable to all types and sizes of ship.

3.2 Whilst the Guidelines are intended to cover instruments listed in 1.1, they should be applied, as appropriate, to drilling rigs and other platforms covered by MARPOL Annex I, regulation 39 and Annex VI, regulation 5.

3.3 A description of the various types of survey is given in section 4 and, as shown on the contents page, this is followed by the detailed requirements for the various surveys for each of the certificates.

3.4 When appropriate, the detailed requirements for the various surveys contain a section that is applicable to all cargo ships followed by a section that only applies to oil tankers.

3.5 Whilst the Convention or Code references are included, where possible, it should be noted that, in general, it has not been possible to indicate where there are differing requirements dependent upon the ship's year of build. Consequently, care should be taken in applying specific requirements, particularly where there have been amendments that are only applicable to ships built after a certain date.

3.6 Although also part of the requirements for the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate, a separate section is provided for inspection of the outside of the ship's bottom.

3.7 SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/12(v) provides for a Cargo Ship Safety Certificate to be issued as an alternative to the Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate, the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate and the Cargo Ship Safety Radio Certificate. Consequently, the surveys for the issue and renewal of the Cargo Ship Safety Certificate should be in accordance with the certificates it replaces and, similarly, the annual and intermediate surveys should be the same as those required for the replaced certificates and the appropriate sections of the Cargo Ship Safety Certificate, endorsed accordingly.

3.8 On the left-hand side of each item to be surveyed may be found two letters in brackets, the first indicating the certificate to which the survey relates, as follows:

	(E)	for the Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate;
	(C)	for the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate;
	(R)	for the Cargo Ship Safety Radio Certificate;
	(L)	for the International Load Line Certificate;
	(O)	for the International Oil Pollution Prevention Certificate;
	(N)	for the International Pollution Prevention Certificate for Carriage of Noxious Liquid Substances in Bulk;
	(S)	for the International Sewage Pollution Prevention Certificate;
	(A)	for the International Air Pollution Prevention Certificate;
	(D)	for the International Certificate of Fitness for the Carriage of Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk or the Certificate of Fitness for the Carriage of Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk;
	(G)	for the International Certificate of Fitness for the Carriage of Liquefied Gases in Bulk;
	(P)	for the Passenger Ship Safety Certificate;

and the second for the type of survey, as follows:

	(I)	for the initial survey;
	(A)	for the annual survey;
	(In)	for the intermediate survey;
	(P)	for the periodical survey;
	(R)	for the renewal survey;
	(B)	for inspection of the outside of the ship's bottom;
	(Ad)	for additional survey.

Consequently, for example, "(EI)", "(OIn)" and "(PR)" indicate the initial survey for the Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate, the intermediate survey for the International Oil Pollution Prevention Certificate and the renewal survey for the Passenger Ship Safety Certificate respectively.

3.9 The amplification of various terms and conditions are given in section 5.

4.6 - Inspections of the outside of the ship's bottom of cargo ships (B)

4.6.1 Frequency
There should be a minimum of two inspections of the outside of the ship's bottom during any five year period (see 5.7), except where SOLAS 74/88, regulation I/14(e) or (f) is applicable. One such inspection should be carried out on or after the fourth annual survey in conjunction with the renewal of the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate or the Cargo Ship Safety Certificate. Where the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate or the Cargo Ship Safety Certificate has been extended under SOLAS 74/88, regulation I/14(e) or (f), this five-year period may be extended to coincide with the validity of the certificate. In all cases the interval between any two such inspections should not exceed 36 months.

4.6.2 General

4.6.2.1 The inspection of the outside of the ship's bottom and the survey of related items (see 5.1) should include an inspection to ensure that they are in a satisfactory condition and fit for the service for which the ship is intended¹.
4.6.2.2 Inspections of the outside of the ship's bottom should normally be carried out with the ship in a dry dock. However, consideration may be given to alternate inspections being carried out with the ship afloat. Special consideration should be given before ships of 15 years of age and over other than bulk carriers and oil tankers are permitted to have such surveys afloat. Inspection of the outside of the ship's bottom of bulk carriers and oil tankers of 15 years of age and over should be carried out with the ship in dry dock. Inspections with the ship afloat should only be carried out when the conditions are satisfactory and the proper equipment and suitably trained staff are available. For ships subject to enhanced survey, the provisions of paragraph 2.2.2² of Annex A or B, as applicable, of resolution A.744(18), as amended, should apply.

4.6.3 Where an inspection of the ships bottom has not been carried out before the due dates reference should be made to 5.6.

¹ Refer to the Guidelines for pre-planning of surveys in dry dock of ships which are not subject to the enhanced programme of inspections (MSC.1/Circ.1223).

Ingangsdatum: 30-11-2011

5.8 - Surveys required after transfer of the ship to the flag of another State

The certificates cease to be valid when a ship transfers to the flag of another State and it is required that the Government of the State to which the ship transfers should not issue new certificates until it is fully satisfied that the ship is being properly maintained and that there have been no unauthorized changes made to the structure, machinery and equipment. When so requested, the Government of the State whose flag the ship was formerly entitled to fly is obliged to forward, as soon as possible, to the new Administration copies of certificates carried by the ship before the transfer and, if available, copies of the relevant survey reports and records, such as record of safety equipment and conditions of assignment for load line. When fully satisfied by an inspection that the ship is being properly maintained and that there have been no unauthorized changes, in order to maintain the harmonization of the surveys the new Administration may give due recognition to initial and subsequent surveys carried out by, or on behalf of, the former Administration and issue new certificates having the same expiry date as the certificates that ceased to be valid because of the change of flag.

05.09 Extending the period of validity of a certificate

Ingangsdatum: 30-11-2011

5.9 - Recommended conditions for extending the period of validity of a certificate

5.9.1 In SOLAS and other mandatory IMO instruments the following provision applies: "If a ship at the time when a certificate expires is not in a port in which it is to be surveyed, the Administration may extend the period of validity of a certificate but this extension should be granted only for the purpose of allowing the ship to complete its voyage to the port in which it is to be surveyed, and then only in cases where it appears proper and reasonable to do so. No certificate should be extended for a period longer than three months, and a ship to which an extension is granted should not, on its arrival in the port in which is to be surveyed, be entitled by virtue of such extension to leave that port without having a new certificate."

5.9.2 If a ship is in a port where the required survey cannot be completed, and where the Convention allows the Administration to extend the certificate when it is proper and reasonable to do so, the Administration should be guided by the following:

an additional survey, equivalent to at least the same scope of an annual survey required by the relevant certificate(s) should be carried out;
the renewal survey should be carried out to the maximum extent possible;
in cases where a dry docking is required, but cannot be carried out, an underwater inspection of the ship's bottom should be carried out;
in cases where an underwater inspection is not possible (e.g. poor water visibility, draft restrictions, excessive current, refusal by the port Authority), an internal inspection of the ship's bottom structure, to the maximum extent practicable, should be carried out;
the ship should be allowed to sail directly to a named final agreed cargo discharge port and then directly to a named agreed port to complete the survey and/or dry docking;
the extension period should be for the minimum amount of time needed to complete the survey and/or dry docking under the relevant certificate(s);
the condition of the ship found by the surveys indicated above should be considered in determining the duration, distance and operational restrictions, if any, of the voyage needed to complete the survey and/or dry docking; and
the extension period of the relevant statutory certificate(s) should not exceed the period of validity of the certificate which may be issued to document compliance with the structural, mechanical and electrical requirements of the recognized classification society.

05.10 Inspection of the outside of a passenger ship's bottom

Ingangsdatum: 30-11-2011

5.10 - Inspection of the outside of a passenger ship's bottom

5.10.1 A minimum of two of the inspections of the outside of the ship's bottom during any five-year period should be conducted in dry-dock. In all cases, the maximum interval between any two dry-dock bottom inspections should not exceed 36 months.

5.10.2 Where acceptable to the Administration, the minimum number of inspections in dry-dock of the outside of the bottom of a passenger ship (which is not a ro-ro passenger ship) in any five-year period may be reduced from two to one³. In such cases the interval between consecutive inspections in dry-dock should not exceed 60 months.

Note: The definition of "any five-year period" is the five-year period of validity of the International Load Line Certificate.

5.10.3 Inspections of the ship's bottom required for the renewal survey that are not conducted in dry-dock may be carried out with the ship afloat. The bottom inspection, regardless of method, should be carried out within the allowable time window for the Passenger Ship Safety Certificate renewal survey (i.e. within the 3 months time window before the expiry date of the certificate). Additionally, inspections of the outside of the ship's bottom conducted afloat should only be carried out when the conditions are satisfactory and the proper equipment and suitably qualified staff is available. Rudder bearing clearances specified in (PR) 5.2.2.1 need not be taken at the afloat inspections.

5.10.4 Special consideration should be given to ships 15 years of age or over before being permitted to credit inspections afloat.

5.10.5 If a survey in dry-dock is not completed within the maximum intervals referred to above, the Passenger Ship Safety Certificate should cease to be valid until the survey in dry-dock is completed.

³Refer to the Guidelines for the assessment of technical provisions for the performance of an in-water survey in lieu of bottom inspection in dry-dock to permit one dry-dock examination in any five-year period for passenger ships other than ro-ro passenger ships (MSC.1/Circ.1348).

5.1 - Definition of related items

Reference: SOLAS 74/88, regulation I/10(b)(v).

Related items mean those items which may only be inspected when the ship is in dry dock or undergoing an in-water examination of the outside of its bottom. For oil tankers, chemical tankers and gas carriers, this may mean that the ship has to be specially prepared by, for example, being cleaned and gas-freed. Then the survey of items such as the internal examination of cargo tanks, as referred to in (CIn) 2.3.2 and (CIn) 2.3.3 in Annex 1 may be undertaken at the same time.

5.2 Extending to five years a certificate issued for less than five years

Ingangsdatum: 30-11-2011

5.2 - Extending to five years a certificate issued for less than five years

References: SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/14(c), LLC 66/88 article 19(3), MARPOL Annex I regulation 10.3, MARPOL Annex II regulation 10.3, MARPOL Annex IV regulation 8.3, MARPOL Annex VI regulation 9.3, IBC Code regulation 1.5.6.3, IGC Code regulation 1.5.6.3, BCH Code regulation 1.6.6.3.

Where a certificate has been issued for a period of less than five years, it is permissible under these regulations or article to extend the certificate so that its maximum period of validity is five years provided that the pattern of surveys for a certificate with a five-year period of validity is maintained (see appendix 2). This means that, for example, if a request is made to extend a two-year Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate to five years, then a periodical and two further annual surveys, as detailed in SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/8, would be required. Also, for example, if it was intended to extend a four-year Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate to five years, then an additional annual survey would be required, as detailed in SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/10. Where a certificate has been so extended, it is still permissible to also extend the certificate under SOLAS 74/88 regulations I/14(e) and (f), LLC 66/88 articles 19(5) and (6), MARPOL Annex I regulations 10.5 and .6, MARPOL Annex II regulations 10.5 and 6, MARPOL Annex IV regulations 8.5 and 8.6, MARPOL Annex VI regulations 9.5 and 9.6, IBC Code regulations 1.5.6.5 and 1.5.6.6, IGC Code, regulations 1.5.6.5 and 1.5.6.6, BCH Code regulations 1.6.6.5 and 1.6.6.6, when no additional surveys would be required but, of course, the new certificate issued after the renewal survey would date from the five-year expiry of the existing certificate, in accordance with SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/14(b)(ii), LLC 66/88 article 19(2)(b), MARPOL Annex I regulation 10.2.2, MARPOL Annex II regulation 10.2.2, MARPOL Annex IV regulation 8.2.2, MARPOL Annex VI regulation 9.2.2, IBC Code regulation 1.5.6.2.2, IGC Code regulation 1.5.6.2.2 and BCH Code regulation 1.6.6.2.2.

5.3 Extending the period between inspections of the outside of the ship's bottom

Ingangsdatum: 30-11-2011

5.3 - Extending the period between inspections of the outside of the ship's bottom

Reference: SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/10(a)(v).

This permits the period of five years in which two inspections of the ship's bottom are to be carried out to be extended when the Cargo Ship Safety Construction Certificate is extended under regulation I/14(e) and (f). However, no extension should be permitted on the period of 36 months between any two such inspections. If the first ship's bottom inspection is carried out between 24 and 27 months then the thirty-sixth-month limitation may prevent the certificate being extended by the periods permitted in regulation I/14(e) and (f).

5.5 - Application of "special circumstances"

References: SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/14(g), LLC 66/88 article 19(7), MARPOL Annex I, Regulation 10.7, MARPOL Annex II regulation 10.7, MARPOL Annex IV regulation 8.7, MARPOL Annex VI regulation 9.7, IBC Code regulation 1.5.6.7, IGC Code regulation 1.5.6.7 and the BCH Code regulation 1.6.6.7.

The purpose of these regulations or article is to permit Administrations to waive the requirement that a certificate issued following a renewal survey that is completed after the expiry of the existing certificate should be dated from the expiry date of the existing certificate. The special circumstances when this could be permitted are where the ship has been laid up or has been out of service for a considerable period because of a major repair or modification. Whilst the renewal survey would be as extensive as if the ship had continued in service, the Administration should consider whether additional surveys or examinations are required depending on how long the ship was out of service and the measures taken to protect the hull and machinery during this period. Where this regulation is invoked, it is reasonable to expect an examination of the outside of the ship's bottom to be held at the same time as the renewal survey when it would not be necessary to include any special requirements for cargo ships for the continued application of SOLAS 74/88 regulation I/10(a)(v).
