Paragraph B/16.56.2 of the ISPS Code recommends that the port facility security plan (PFSP) should establish details of the procedures and security measures the port facility should apply when it is interfacing with a ship to which the ISPS Code does not apply. Paragraph B/16.57 of the ISPS Code recommends that the PFSP should establish the procedures to be followed when on the instructions of the Contracting Government the port facility security officer (PFSO) requests a Declaration of Security or when a Declaration of Security is requested by a ship. If the approved PFSP already includes appropriate provisions to this end then those security measures and procedures should be applied unless the Contracting Government concerned decides otherwise. If the PFSP does not contain such provisions, then the PFSO should contact the authorities who approved the PFSP and the authorities responsible for the exercise of control and compliance measure pursuant to SOLAS regulation XI-2/9 and seek their advice and guidance.
