Starting January 1, 2024, new International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations will require global ports to use a “single window” for electronic data exchange. This digitalization effort aims to improve efficiency in the maritime industry. To assess the current state of digitalization when ships call at ports, BIMCO has launched a survey. The survey will gauge the readiness of national authorities for the “single window” requirement and provide insights into the digitalization maturity of ports. The results will be presented to the IMO Facilitation Committee in April 2024. The survey will be conducted from September to December 2023 and ensures anonymity for respondents.
