Why IHM maintenance matters
Port State Control checks the IHM certificate and may conduct detailed inspections if Part I isn’t maintained or if procedures are missing. Non-compliance can lead to warnings, detention or exclusion from ports.
Note: The Hong Kong Convention entered into force on 26 June 2025, and enforcement focus on up-to-date IHM documentation is increasing.
