The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted a new mandatory regulation for onboard lifting appliances: SOLAS (Safety of Life At Sea) Regulation II-1/3-13. The aim is to provide a uniform level of safety for their design, construction and installation, as well as to stipulate consistent requirements for periodical examinations, load tests, maintenance, inspections and operation.

This new regulation will enter into force on 1 January 2026.

If you operate a SOLAS vessel, the permanently installed lifting appliances listed in Table 1 must comply with the applicable requirements of the new SOLAS Regulation II-1/3-13, taking into account the associated Guidelines in MSC.1/Circ.1663.
