IMO Container Weight Rules Come Into Force July 1st From July 1st 2016, the Verified Gross Mass [VGM] will be applied for improved container stowage onboard vessels to avoid incidents. The International Maritime Organisation [IMO] has adopted amendments to the Safety of Life at Sea convention [SOLAS] requiring every packed export container to have its weight verified before being loaded onto a ship. This regulation is intended to limit accidents caused by the wrongful disclosure of containers’ weight. Shippers need to ensure they are prepared for these new rules as they will be responsible for verifying container weights before loading. There are 2 acceptable methods of verifying weight: 1. The shipper may weigh or have a third party weigh the packed, sealed container. 2. The shipper may weigh or have a third party weigh all cargo items and all pallets, dunnage and other packing and securing material to be packed in the container, and add the tare mass of the container marked on the container to the sum of the masses of the container’s contents. Estimating and weighing methods depend on national regulations as issued by the relevant and competent authorities. Also under either method, the declaration of the verified weight must be signed and dated.
