SOLAS VGM Compliance Rules effective July, 2016.

Posted on by wider_admin

Dear All,

Re: Guidelines on the Verification of Gross Mass of a Container with
Cargo Packed in Hong Kong

The IMO SOLAS amendment on Container Weight Verification will become effective on 1 July 2016. The main requirement of this amendment is for shippers to provide export full container’s
verified gross mass prior to loading. No provision or agreement may override or be in conflict with the obligation to abide by SOLAS rules.

The Marine Department has updated its website with information revelant to VGM requirements. Additionally, making reference to the concerned guidance of IMO, a ” Guideline on the Verification of Gross Mass of a Container with Cargo Packed in Hong Kong ” has been published to provide guidance to operators in the industry to comply with the new requirement and are recommended to browse the webpage & take necessary actions accordingly.

Wider Logistics Ltd has been working on developing the most clear and
easy way to help customers comply with this rule & keep close once have final confirmation. Thanks !
