Responding to Port State Control
When requested by Port State and upon concurrence by the vessel’s owner/ master MMCS Surveyors would attend onboard a vessel in order to assist in the rectification of reported deficiencies or other discrepancies that affect or may affect classification or the statutory certificates issued by MMCS. The owner and the vessel’s flag state will be notified of such attendance and survey. MMCS Surveyors will also cooperate with Port state by providing inspectors with background information.
