BIMCO has, together with the International Chamber of Shipping, Norway, Bangladesh, India and Pakistan, urged the IMO (International Maritime Organisation) to solve conflicting requirements between the Hong Kong Convention and the Basel Convention ahead of the entry into force of the Hong Kong Convention on 26 June 2025 as currently shipowners and others may potentially be exposed to severe consequences, including criminal liability, when recycling ships in the major ship recycling countries in South Asia such as Bangladesh, India and Pakistan – even if the ships and facilities comply with the Hong Kong Convention. The IMO is looking into it and has asked  the Conference of the Parties to the Basel Convention for clarification.

With the recent accessions by Liberia and Bangladesh, the Hong Kong Convention on ship recycling, which was adopted in 2009, will finally enter into force on 26 June 2025. On 30 November 2023 there was a further breakthrough by Pakistan’s accession, which means that all major recycling states have now committed to the Convention. What will be the practical implications? How will the Convention mesh with the existing regulations?
