This Newsletter aims to inform all interested parties about the publication of Marine Notice ADM-008 Rev. 06/26 by the Liberia Maritime Authority. The purpose of this Notice is to provide guidance on regulations XI-1/3 and XI-1/3-1 of SOLAS, 1978, as amended, that requires all passenger ships of 100 gross tonnage and upwards and all cargo ships of 300 gross tonnage and upwards to be provided with an identification number, and every Company and registered owner of ships to which SOLAS Chapter I applies, to be provided with an identification number which conforms to the Integrated IMO Identification Number Scheme adopted by the International Maritime Organization.

The Integrated IMO Identification Number Scheme was adopted to enhance maritime safety, security and environmental protection, and to facilitate the prevention of maritime fraud, and harmonizes the two previous schemes, i.e. the IMO Ship Identification Number Scheme and the IMO Unique Company and Registered Owner Identification Number Scheme.
