    ISPS Code Requirements

    • Ship Security Plan (SSP) mandatory: All ships over 500 gross tonnage (GT) on international voyages require an SSP.

    • Security levels: Three levels – 1 (Normal Risk), 2 (Increased Risk), and 3 (Imminent Incident). Different levels trigger different security measures.
    • Level 1 (Normal Risk): Routine security measures maintained at all times.
    • Level 2 (Increased Risk): Enhanced security measures implemented temporarily.
    • Level 3 (Imminent Incident): Maximum security measures activated when an attack is likely.

    Declaration of Security (DoS)
