Flag State Inspection & Compliance Verification
Consult Maritime provides Flag State inspections, vessel compliance assessments, and statutory verification services to help shipowners and operators maintain compliance with international maritime regulations and Flag State requirements.
Depending on Flag Administration requirements and the scope of assignment, services may include Annual and Special Safety Inspections, Port State Control (PSC) readiness inspections, casualty attendance, ISM, ISPS and MLC audits, compliance verifications, and support for statutory certification onboard commercial vessels.
As an authorized Flag State Inspector, Consult Maritime conducts inspections on a wide range of vessel types calling at major U.S. ports, including New York & New Jersey, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk, and U.S. Gulf Coast ports. Inspections evaluate vessel condition, safety and firefighting systems, lifesaving appliances, navigation equipment, machinery spaces, operational procedures, certificates, and statutory documentation.
Our objective is to identify deficiencies before they become regulatory findings, helping owners and managers maintain Flag State compliance, Port State Control readiness, and operational reliability. Detailed reports provide practical recommendations and corrective actions to reduce detention risk, strengthen compliance, and support successful Flag State and PSC inspections..
