The convention is the most important global regulatory framework for safety at sea and forms the basis for most safety requirements applicable to ships in international trade.
SOLAS stands for the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea and was originally adopted to improve shipping safety. The regulations set comprehensive requirements for ship construction, equipment, operation, and safety procedures, aiming to protect life at sea and prevent accidents.

This includes regulations on ship safety, fire protection, life-saving appliances, safety of navigation, radio communications, carriage of dangerous goods, and requirements for the safe operation of ships.

The publication is a key reference work for everyone working with safety regulations in international shipping and for compliance with the requirements of the SOLAS Convention.
