Passenger Ship Regulations

Passenger ship regulations are rules established to ensure safety, security, and environmental protection aboard ships that carry passengers. They set standards for ship design, construction, equipment, and operational procedures, including life-saving devices, navigation safety, crew training, and emergency preparedness. These regulations are enforced by maritime authorities and international organizations, such as the IMO, to minimize risks, prevent accidents, and protect passengers and crew. Compliance with these regulations helps ensure safe voyages, maintaining industry standards and promoting confidence in passenger maritime travel.
