The port State control officer should, at earliest possible opportunity, ascertain the year of build and size of the ship
to be inspected for the purpose of determining which provisions of the conventions are applicable.
Before boarding, the port State control officer may gain, from its appearance in the water, an impression of its
standard of maintenance from such items as the condition of paintwork, corrosion or pitting or unrepaired damage
and its loading condition.
On the way to the masters room, the port State control officer may further look into the condition of such items as
fire-fighting appliances and life-saving appliances on deck, stowage of the fire control plan, muster list and watertight
doors.
On boarding and introduction to the master or his deputy, the port State control officer should examine the ships
relevant certificates and documents as listed in 2, and furthermore satisfy himself that the crew and the overall
condition of the ship, its equipment, machinery space and accommodation, and hygienic conditions on board, meets
the provisions of the relevant instruments.

If the certificates are valid and the port State control officers general impression and visual observations on board
confirm a good standard of maintenance, the port State control officer should generally confine the inspection to
reported or observed deficiencies, if any.
However, if the port State control officers general impressions or observations on board has clear grounds for
believing that the ship, its equipment or its crew do not substantially meet the requirements, the port State control
officer should proceed to a more detailed inspection.
The above procedural note is only provided as minimum requirements for initial control. In practice, the scope and
extent of initial control are up to the instructions given to port State control officers by the Administrations.
