All ISPS-certified ships wishing to call at a European port must submit pre-arrival security information. This information must include the standard details specified in IMO's guidance 'Security-related information as required under SOLAS regulation XI-2/9.2.2' (MSC.1/Circ.1305).
Ships can report directly to SafeSeaNet or indirectly via their broker or agent. Ports and port facilities do not participate in this process.
The Danish Civil Aviation and Railway Authority monitors the pre-arrival security information of ships and will act if necessary based on the received information.
The required information must be submitted to SafeSeaNet:
- At least 24 hours in advance,
- Or as soon as the ship departs from the previous port if the journey is less than 24 hours,
- Or if the port of call is unknown or changes during the journey, as soon as the port of call is known.
You can read more about SafeSeaNet on the Danish Defence's website: SafeSeaNet (SSN).
If you wish to apply for an exemption from pre-arrival information, please refer to the Danish Civil Aviation and Railway Authority website: Ansøgning om fritagelse for før-ankomst information
