A Ship Sanitation Control Exemption Certificate can normally be issued only if the inspection of the ship has been carried out when the ship and holds are empty or when they contain only ballast or other material, of such a nature or so disposed as to make a thorough inspection of the holds possible.
How does the ship’s loading condition affect the issue of a Ship Sanitation Control Exemption Certificate under Article 39. 6 of IHR (2005)?
