Effective from January 1, 2024, significant amendments to SOLAS Chapters III/IV/V and the HSC Code, introduced by MSC.496(105) and 499(105), are ushering in new templates for recording safety radio and equipment details in relevant safety certificates.
The new format introduced for the safety certificates will require a coordinated issuance of all affected certificates to ensure a consistent representation of the vessel. Consequently, any issuance of the relevant safety certificates, including either safety equipment records or safety radio records, will trigger a re-issuance of all relevant safety certificates, which may also include safety equipment or the safety radio.
