IMO Vega on the Web - Yearly Internet Subscription

Product Description

This is a yearly subscription to the IMO Vega Database.

IMO Vega is an essential tool for anyone involved in shipping: shipowners and operators, shipbuilders, classification societies, casualty investigators, governments, insurers and underwriters, port authorities, surveyors and many others.

The IMO Vega Database, developed jointly by IMO and Det Norske Veritas (DNV GL AS), puts all the necessary information at your fingertips. Given year of build, ship type, ship size, cargo, trade area and flag, IMO Vega will quickly identify the requirements applicable to the ship in question.


Unlike other, similar products, IMO Vega contains historical data including regulations which have been superseded. In the context of Port State Control, for example, access to the correct historical regulations is essential.
The database contains updated and consolidated IMO documents including:

•Assembly 33, MEPC 81 and MSC 108

•and circulars up until and including October 2024

MSC 108 adopted inter alia amendments to the following STCW-F. Mandatory (new). Further updated performance standards, recommendations and requirements for maintenance were adopted.


MEPC 81 adopted inter alia amendments to the following BWM. Further updated and new guidelines were adopted.


Forthcoming requirements to the mandatory conventions and codes are highlighted in green. Ref. Table of Contents > IMO requirements by enter into force date > IMO requirements recently in force or expected into force in the future.
