This NVIC is intended to provide guidance for Coast Guard marine inspectors, Recognized Classification Societies (RCS) that are authorized to issue international convention certificates on behalf of the Coast Guard, and U.S. vessel owners/operators on the U.S. laws and regulations, or other measures, conforming to the provisions of Reference. Through this NVIC, the Coast Guard is establishing a voluntary inspection program for vessel owners/operators who wish to document compliance with the standards of the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC). United States commercial vessels that operate on international routes, meaning those ships that will enter the ports of countries that are parties to the MLC, are encouraged to participate.
