ISPS Enquiry

ISPS (International Ship and Port Facility Security) inquiry is the process of assessing compliance with the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code) established by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to ensure the security of ships and port facilities in the maritime industry. This inquiry involves checking whether ships and ports are taking appropriate protection measures against security threats such as terrorism, piracy, smuggling, etc. ISPS audits usually include a review of security plans, training of personnel, monitoring and control systems and emergency procedures. This process ensures the safe conduct of international trade by minimizing security risks to maritime transport.
