Port state control (PSC) is the
inspection of foreign ships in other national ports by port state control
officers (inspectors) for the purpose of verifying that the competency of the
master and officers on board, and the condition of the ship and its equipment
comply with the requirements of international conventions (e.g. SOLAS, MARPOL,
STCW, etc.) and that the vessel is manned and operated in compliance with
applicable international law.
It’s
simply a system of police whereby Port State control officers boards any vessel
arriving at a port within their jurisdiction to confirm that the vessel
conforms with requirements of international conventions, safety standards,
certifications and competency for the master and the crews
