Any certificate covered by the HSSC may be extended for up to three months (or for ships on short voyages, for a period of grace of one month) so that the renewal survey can be carried out.

What do you think?

A ship is delayed on a voyage to a survey port where her harmonised certificates are due to be renewed. How should a request be made for an extension of the validity of the certificates?

In the HSSC, where a renewal survey is completed within 3 months before the expiry of the relevant SOLAS certificate, for how long may the new certificate be issued?
