The presence of active pirates in high-risk waters has led to a major impact in various industries involving shipping. According to the International Maritime Bureau, 2010 was the peak year for the world in this millennial with 445 total attacks, the highest number of pirate attacks on merchant ships in a year. As this problem affects almost the entire safety and economy of the shipping industry that passes through this area, various parties are beginning to take seriously the importance of having an armed guard onboard. However, when it comes to the use of weapons onboard of ships or vessels crossing waters of various countries, various legislative issues begin to arise. The main purpose of this study is to emphasize the importance of the presence of armed guards onboard ships passing through high-risk waters, which include their duties and responsibilities. This study also attempts to identify the legal guidelines involved as well as the issues that arise in the implementation of the related laws.
