These guidelines released by the China Register of Shipping stipulate the appropriate standards of AIS, standing for the Automatic Identification Systems installed on ships, the requirements to be complied with during the inspection of marine product, installation survey and subsequent surveys in service, as well as relevant testing methods.

This is done by satisfying the functionalities including ship-to-ship mode of operation to prevent collisions and coastal states obtaining the information relating to the vessels and cargoes transported on them.
