IACS
International Association of Classification Societies
The International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) is a gathering of ten classification socities, headquartered in London. It was founded on September 11, 1968 in the city of Hamburg .
Dedicated to safe ships and clean seas, IACS makes a unique contribution to maritime safety and regulation through technical support, compliance verification and research and development. More than 90% of the world's cargo carrying tonnage is covered by the classification design, construction and through-life compliance Rules and standards set by the ten Member Societies and one Associate of IACS.
