KR and DMA to Cooperate on Certification of Danish Ships

This brings the total number of countries where KR is authorised to carry out ship survey and certification work to 66.

KR, in accordance with this agreement, is now able to carry out relevant surveys, audits and issue certificates to Danish and Greenland ships for SOLAS, MARPOL, ITC, ILL, ISM, ISPS, and MLC.
All exemption certification relating to surveys will also be issued by KR, after acquiring prior approval from the government of Denmark.
KR has been issuing certificates to Danish ships for inspection and examination of ITC (International Tonnage Certificate) since 1998.
KR Chairman & CEO, Chon Young-kee said:
This long-term cooperation agreement is the starting point for developing a further cooperative relationship with Denmark. KR has been receiving new international authorisations at the rate of three or four a year, and we hope to sign further agreements in 2014.
