COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1744
of 17 September 2019
on technical specifications for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation and repealing Regulation (EU) No 164/2010
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2005/44/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 September 2005 on harmonised river information services (RIS) on inland waterways in the Community (1), and in particular point (b) of Article 5(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Electronic reporting in inland navigation should contribute to the safety and efficiency of inland navigation, by enabling electronic data interchange for reporting purposes to and between competent authorities and to facilitate electronic data interchange among the parties involved in inland waterway transport. Electronic reporting should help to avoid multiple reporting of the same data to competent authorities and other parties in the transport chain.
(2)
The development of harmonised river information services (RIS) laid down in Directive 2005/44/EC requires the establishment of technical specifications, including, inter alia, on electronic ship reporting.
(3)
The technical specifications for electronic ship reporting laid down in Commission Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 (2) specify the messages, data items, codes and references to be used in electronic reporting for enabling specific services and functions of RIS in line with Directive 2005/44/EC.
(4)
Technical specifications for electronic ship reporting should take due account of the technological progress and the experiences gained from their application, including the introduction of mandatory electronic reporting requirements on major rivers in Europe. For that reason, the technical specifications defined in Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 should be revised and clarified.
(5)
The revised technical specifications should take due account of the latest internationally adopted standards, guidelines and experiences gained as a result of their application, such as the relevant standards by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), the Central Commission for the Navigation of the Rhine (CCNR) and other international bodies. In addition, the specific provisions of Directive (EU) 2016/1629 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2032 (4) should be considered.
(6)
The revised technical specifications should take due account of the requirement of compatibility with other modes of transport, in particular maritime transport. This should be achieved by making use of internationally standardised notification messages, accepted code lists and classifications and following guidelines as defined by the Protect (5) group.
(7)
Pursuant to Article 12(2) of Directive 2005/44/EC technical specifications should enter into force immediately after their publication and Member States should apply those specifications not later than 30 months after entry into force.
(8)
Taking into account the extent of required changes, Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 should be repealed.
(9)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 11 of Directive 2005/44/EC,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The technical specifications for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation shall be as set out in the Annex.
Article 2
Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 is repealed.
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply not later than 30 months after its entry into force.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(Dangerous) goods reporting (IFTDGN) — ERINOT

1.   PART I: MESSAGE IMPLEMENTATION MANUAL CONVENTION
1.1   Introduction
These technical specifications define the structure of four messages for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation, based on the United Nations rules for Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce and Transport (UN/EDIFACT) (1) message structure and customised, where required, for the purpose of inland navigation.
In the case that electronic ship reporting in inland navigation is required by national or international law, these technical specifications shall be applied.
The exact use of the messages, data elements and codes are defined in the Appendices (Message Implementation Manuals) in order to ensure a common understanding and usage of the messages.
The messages are:
1.
(Dangerous) goods reporting message (IFTDGN) — ERINOT
2.
Passenger and crew lists message (PAXLST)
3.
ERINOT response and receipt message (APERAK) — ERIRSP
4.
Berth management port notification message (BERMAN)
For sharing of information the use of XML technology is another possibility apart from the UN/EDIFACT standards.
1.2.   UN/EDIFACT message structure
The message structure is based on ISO 9735.
UN/EDIFACT messages are composed of segments. The structure of a message is described in a branching diagram indicating the position and the mutual relationship of the segments and segment groups.
For each segment data elements are defined: some data elements are combined to form composite data elements. A segment and a data element within a segment are either mandatory (M) or conditional (C). Mandatory segments and/or data elements contain important data for a receiving application and shall be filled with valid data.
Each message starts with two or three segments, the ‘interchange header’ (UNB) and the ‘message header’ (UNH). Where required, also the ‘service string advice’ (UNA) is used as a first segment to define which character sets are used in the message. Each message finishes with the segments ‘message trailer’ (UNT) and ‘interchange trailer’ (UNZ). Thus, each message is contained in one interchange, and an interchange contains only one single message.
1.3.   Introduction to message types
As mentioned in section 1.1, the four message types are:
1.
(Dangerous) goods reporting message (IFTDGN) — ERINOT
2.
Passenger and crew lists message (PAXLST)
3.
ERINOT response and receipt message (APERAK) — ERIRSP
4.
Berth management port notification message (BERMAN)
In addition, messages can fulfill the following functions:
—
new message (identifier ‘9’);
—
modification of message (identifier ‘5’);
—
cancellation of message (identifier ‘1’);
—
end of voyage (identifier ‘22’);
—
interruption of voyage (identifier ‘150’);
—
restart of voyage (identifier ‘151’).
1.3.1.   ERINOT
The ERI notification message (ERINOT) shall be used for the reporting of voyage related information and of information on dangerous and non-dangerous cargo carried on-board vessels sailing on inland waterways. The ERINOT message is a specific use of the UN/EDIFACT ‘International Forwarding and Transport Dangerous Goods Notification (IFTDGN)’ message. For the data and codes contained in the message applications based on these message specifications, use has been made of the UN Directory D98B.
The ERINOT message encompasses the following types:
—
transport notification from vessel to authority (identifier ‘VES’), from ship to shore;
—
transport notification from carrier to authority (identifier ‘CAR’), from shore to shore;
—
passage notification (identifier ‘PAS’), from authority to authority.
1.3.2.   PAXLST
The PAXLST message is based on the UN/EDIFACT message PAXLST. It shall be used for the exchange of data in inland navigation between the captain/skipper or carrier and designated authorities such as customs, immigration, police or terminals falling under the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, as defined in Regulation (EC) No 725/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2).
The message shall be also used to transfer passenger/crew data from a designated authority in the country of departure to the appropriate authorities in the country of arrival of the means of transport.
1.3.3.   ERIRSP
The ERI response message (ERIRSP) is derived from the UN/EDIFACT APERAK message. It may be generated by the system of the designated authority. The response to a ‘modification’ or a ‘cancellation’ contains information whether or not the ‘modification’ or ‘cancellation’ has been processed by the receiving system.
1.3.4.   BERMAN
The Berth Management (BERMAN) message combines the pre-arrival notification, respectively general declaration, into one single notification which is based on the EDIFACT message BERMAN from the UN/EDIFACT D04B directory.
The BERMAN message shall be sent by vessels sailing on inland waterways before arriving at or departing from a berth or a port and provides information about the time of arrival and the services required to ensure a prompt handling, to support procedures and to facilitate controls.
2.   PART II: CODES AND REFERENCES
2.1.   Introduction
Codes and references, as defined in this Part, shall be used in electronic ship reporting for inland navigation. The use of codes and references serves the purpose of unambiguousness: it eliminates the possible misinterpretation and facilitates the translation of messages into other languages.
Therefore the usage of codes and references is mandatory for the data elements indicated in the message implementation manuals. Those codes and references are also available electronically in the European Reference Data Management System (ERDMS) operated by the Commission.
Those codes and references shall be used whenever data is interchanged between various computer applications and between parties using different languages, even beyond the message types in the subject of this Annex.
2.2.   Definitions
For the purposes of this Annex, the following definitions shall apply.
Agent means any person mandated or authorised to act for or to supply information on behalf of the (transport) operator of the vessel.
Barge means a vessel that has no propulsion of its own.
Blue cones means signals that inland vessels carrying out transport operations involving dangerous substances are required to show pursuant to the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Inland Waterways (ADN), namely one, two or three blue cones by day and one, two or three blue lights at night.
Carrier or transport operator means the person responsible for the carriage of goods, either directly or using a third party.
Cargo means any goods, wares, merchandise and articles carried on a ship. So ship carries cargo consisting of one or more consignments (with the necessary equipment) each consisting of one or more goods items.

Common access reference means a common key to relate all subsequent transfers of data to the same business case or file (Data Element 0068 TDED). The common access reference shall be regarded as a common denominator (3) linking through a unique number documents, electronic messages and other communications with the same objective and characteristics.
A consignment means a separate identifiable number of goods transported from one consignor (port of loading) to one consignee (port of discharge) and identified and specified in one single transport document. A container as equipment shall in this context be seen as a separate identifiable packing unit for which separate bookings are done and as such shall be considered a single consignment.
Consignee means the party such as mentioned in the transport document by whom the goods, cargo or containers are to be received.
Consignor means the merchant by whom, in whose name or on whose behalf a contract of carriage of goods has been concluded with a carrier or any party by whom, in whose name or on whose behalf the goods are actually delivered to the consignee in relation to the contract of carriage (Synonyms: shipper, cargo sender).
Container means an item of equipment for transport purposes with the following characteristics:
1.
a permanent character and accordingly strong enough to be suitable for repeated use;
2.
specially designed to facilitate the carriage of goods, by one or more modes and means of transport;

The location shall be recognised as such by a competent national body.
Means of transport means the type of vehicle used for the transport of goods such as barge, truck, vessel or train.
Metric ton means a unit of weight equivalent to 1 000 kg.
Mode of transport means a method of transport used for the conveyance of goods e.g. by rail, by road, by sea, by inland waterways.
Next port of call means the consecutive place (port of call) where a ship will arrive after having made a voyage. The term is used, by the master only, to indicate the subsequent competent authority in accordance with the applicable regulations.
Passage point means a defined distinguishable spot which serves as a marker to determine parts of a voyage of a vessel and triggering a certain action. It may take the form a virtual line perpendicular on the fairway axis running from side to side of the fairway.
Port of call means a place where a vessel actually drops anchor, moors or otherwise comes to rest for a certain period of time to execute any necessary operations related to ship, cargo or crew.
Qualifier means a data element whose value is expressed as a code that gives specific meaning to the function of another data element or a segment.
Reference number means a number that serves to refer to or mention a relation or where applicable a restriction.
Register ton means a unit of internal capacity of ships equal to 100 cubic feet (2,8317 m3).

Appendix 1
(Dangerous) Goods Reporting (IFTDGN) — ERINOT
1.   ERI NOTIFICATION MESSAGE
The ERI notification message (ERINOT) is a specific use of the UN/EDIFACT ‘International Forwarding and Transport Dangerous Goods Notification (IFTDGN)’ message as it has been developed within the PROTECT organisation. The ERINOT message is based on EDIFACT directory 98.B and Protect version 1.0.
The segment table of ERINOT message is depicted in chapter 1.4. The branching diagram of the ERINOT message is depicted in chapter 1.5
To ensure the usage of the message also under special circumstances such as a convoy of ships, some extra qualifiers have been introduced for the RFF segments in the TDT group.
1.1   Field of application
The ERI notification message (ERINOT)shall be used by skippers and on behalf of skippers by transport operators and agents for the reporting of dangerous and non-dangerous cargo carried by inland waterway vessels.
The message supports the implementation — by means of EDI — of the following reporting needs:
—
applicable police regulations either on Member States level or locally (eg. specific requirements in specific ports);
—
reporting requirements set by river commissions (eg. on the Rhine set by CCNR);
—
goods reporting for statistics purposes (Member States level or Eurostat).
1.2   Principles
The ERINOT message is a specific standard implementation and use of the UN/EDIFACT ‘International Forwarding and Transport Dangerous Goods Notification (IFTDGN)’ message such as has been developed within the PROTECT seaports organisation.
This standard message implementation guideline has been accepted by the IMO for the reporting of dangerous goods to authorities. It has been designated as the message from the party responsible to report ‘dangerous’ goods to the authority performing the control and checks on conformance with the legal requirements. The message is conveying information on the ‘dangerous’ goods being loaded, discharged or in transit relating to a means of transport.
Where reporting is mandatory and if technically feasible, an ERI notification message is to be composed and sent to the competent authority for each inland waterway transport.
However all vessels are invited to report electronically to the competent authorities whenever possible. Where available, this may be done through a Single Window (1) to come to the envisioned reduction of procedures.
The notification message based on this standard message can be depicted as follows:
‘ERI (Electronic Reporting International) Notification Message’ with the following types:
—
transport notification from vessel to authority from ship to shore;
—
transport notification from carrier to authority from shore to shore;
—
passage notification from authority to authority.

Goods item number
Sequence number of the good within a consignment. Unique within the CNI group
Clarification:
—
Each item shall be separately identified by means of the line (goods) item number and particulars.
—
Goods item number: The sequence number of the good within a consignment. This means, if a consignment consists of several goods items, all the goods items shall be represented as unique goods items (GID). If the consignment only consists of one line (goods) item, the shipper (cargo sender) shall represent this in one line. It is important that commercial information remains unchanged in the respective messages and does not disappear.
—
The division of an ERINOT message can be explained as follows:
—
A means of transport may contain in its cargo one or more consignments. Each consignment may contain one or more goods items, each with its own particulars. Consignments, including the goods within this respective consignment, may be divided over one or more vessels (e.g. in a convoy in one voyage).
—
Each container in itself is represented in the ERINOT message as separate consignment information group; as a result, the number of consignments will increase with each container.

In some cases, amongst others in the passage message ERINOT(PAS), ‘dummy’ segments shall be used as part of mandatory groups of segments. For these ‘dummy’ segments the following rules apply:
CNI group:
—
CNI: sequence number: ‘9999’
CNI/GID group:
—
GID: sequence number: ‘99999’
CNI/GID/DGS group:
—
DGS:
—
Class type: ‘IMD’
—
Classification: ‘0.0’
—
UNDG number: ‘0000’
—
FTX AAD: good name: ‘DUMMY’
—
MEA: weight: 0
2.3.   Empty vessels
If an empty vessel is reported, the following rules apply for the mandatory segment groups:
1.
Empty of non-dangerous goods or unknown previous cargo:
CNI group:
—
CNI: sequence number: ‘9999’
CNI/GID group:
—
GID: sequence number: ‘99999’
CNI/GID/DGS group:
—
DGS:
—
Class type: ‘IMD’
—
Classification: ‘0.0’
—
UNDG number: ‘0000’
—
FTX AAD: good name: ‘DUMMY’
—
MEA: weight: 0
2.
Empty of dangerous goods (in the case previous dangerous cargo were reported):
CNI group:
—
CNI: valid sequence number
—
LOC: source and destination (current voyage)
CNI/GID group:
—
GID: valid sequence number
—
FTX ACB: type of good: ‘D’, HS code of (previous) dangerous good
CNI/GID/DGS group:
—
DGS: dangerous goods details (previous cargo)
—
FTX AAD: dangerous good name
—
MEA: weight: 0
—
SGP: details of the empty vessel
—
MEA: weight: 0
2.4.   Container transport with non-dangerous goods
If containers are transported, the following extra rules apply for the mandatory groups if a container does not carry dangerous goods:
CNI group:
—
CNI: valid sequence number
—
LOC: source and destination
CNI/GID group:
—
GID: valid sequence number
—
FTX ACB: type of good: ‘N’, HS code of the good
—
FTX AAA, good name, NST code of the good, HS code of the good
—
SGP: details of the vessel
—
MEA: total weight of the non-dangerous good in the vessel
CNI/GID/DGS group:
—
DGS:
—
Class type: ‘IMD’
—
Classification: ‘0.0’
—
UNDG number: ‘0000’
—
FTX AAD: good name: ‘DUMMY’
—
MEA: weight: 0
—
SGP group (1):
—
SGP: vessel details
—
MEA: weight of the good in the vessel
—
SGP group (2-99):
—
SGP: Container number
—
MEA: weight of the good in the container
This way of entering data for a container loaded with non-dangerous goods follows the way the data for a container with dangerous goods are entered. Due to compatibility reasons with previous versions, the vessel details are entered twice.
2.5.   Stowage encoding for 30' and 45'containers
If for a 30'container the front of the container falls between two 20' slots, the highest bay number is used for the encoding of the 30' container.
The 45' container is used in similar manner as a 40' container (even bay slot number). The container type will be used to uniquely determine that the slot contains a 45' container.
2.6.   Containers with unknown details on the goods or empty containers
If containers are transported where the details of the goods in the containers are not known, or empty containers are transported, the following extra rules apply:
EQD group:
EQD: container range
MEA: number of containers in the given range
CNI group:
CNI: valid sequence number
LOC: source and destination
CNI/GID group:
GID: valid sequence number
FTX ACB: type of good: ‘N’, HS code
FTX AAA: good name, NST code, HS code
SGP: details of the vessel
MEA: total weight of the containers in the given range
CNI/GID/DGS group:
dummy group
Depending on the range of containers the following codes shall be used:
HS code
Containers 20 ft empty
8609000002
Containers 30 ft empty
8609000004
Containers 40 ft empty
8609000003
Containers 20 ft loaded
8609000007
Containers 30 ft loaded
8609000008
Containers 40 ft loaded
8609000009
2.7.   Exchanging information between RIS authorities
When exchanging information between RIS authorities, a passage message type shall be used by specifying ‘PAS’ in the BGM segment (element 1001).
In this PAS message the following information regarding the voyage shall be included:
—
BGM element 1001 = ‘PAS’.
—
TDT group:
—
LOC(1), type ‘5’ = Place of departure.
—
LOC(2), type ‘172’ = Passage point.
—
LOC(9), type ‘153’ = Place of destination (first port where transport is bound).
—
DTM(2), type ‘186’ = Passage time of LOC(2).
—
DTM(3), type ‘132’ = ETA of LOC(9) only if available.
—
CNI groups with all the (known) cargo onboard.
The CNI group may be empty only if it is a passage message notifying another (local) party of the last position/passage point of that vessel.
2.8.   Cancelling a notification or notifying an interruption/a restart of a voyage
When cancelling a notification or when notifiying an interruption/a restart of a voyage, the following information shall be specified:
—
BGM element 1225 = ‘1’ or ‘150’ or ‘151’ (according to message function).
—
RFF(ACW) element 1154 refers to the last message sent.
—
All other segments (TDT, CNI, etc.) contain the same information as specified in the last notification message sent.

Appendix 2
Passenger and crew list — (PAXLST)
1.   UN/EDIFACT STANDARD MESSAGE PAXLST
The passenger respectively crew list notification is based on the UN/EDIFACT message PAXLST.
1.1.   Functional definition
The passenger/crew list message (PAXLST) permits the transfer of passenger or crew data, or both. The message shall be used for the exchange of data in inland navigation between the captain/skipper or carrier and designated authorities such as ISPS terminals, customs, immigration, police.
The message shall be also used to transfer passenger/crew data from a designated authority in the country of departure to the appropriate authorities in the country of arrival of the means of transport.
1.2.   Field of application
The passenger list message can be used for both national and international applications. It is based on general practice in administration, commerce and transport, and it is not dependent on the type of business or industry, neither on the mode of transport. The basic concept of the PAXLST message is that there is one message for all crew members for a specified ship on a specified voyage, and another message for the passengers on that voyage whilst also possible stowaways can be reported through a separate message. The messages can be transmitted separately or combined into one transmission.
The message supports the implementation — by means of EDI — of the following reporting needs:
—
national reporting requirements with respect to crew/passengers and stowaway
—
Regulation (EC) No 725/2004 on enhancing ship and port facility security also has provisions related to crew and passenger lists.
Moreover, in accordance with recommended practice set out in the Convention on the Facilitation of International Maritime Traffic, maritime authorities are not to require more than the following information in the crew list:
—
Name and nationality of ship (country/area of registration)
—
Family name
—
Given names
—
Nationality
—
Rank or rating
—
Date and place of birth
—
Nature and number of identity document
—
Port and date of arrival
—
Arriving from
In addition, in accordance with the requirements of the competent authorities in inland shipping, the following information might be required:
—
Names of visitors to a vessel
—
Licence plates of the vehicles
—
Exact place and time of boarding and going ashore
—
Required services such as deliveries, stores and spares
—
Names of repair people together with company name
—
Changes of crew
—
Children of the crew.
All these details can be exchanged through the PAXLST message.

Appendix 3
ERINOT response and receipt message (APERAK) — ERIRSP
1.   APERAK GENERAL RESPONSE AND RECEIPT MESSAGE
This message shall be used to provide where required answering and response functions to sent messages.
The function of this message is:
(a)
to inform a message issuer that his message has been received by the addressee’s application and has been rejected due to errors encountered during its processing in the application;
(b)
to acknowledge to a message issuer the receipt of his message by the addressee’s application.
1.1.   Field of application
The application error and acknowledgement message can be used for both national and international applications. It is not dependent on the type of business or industry, neither it is a legal requirement: it is based on business practices related to administration and transport.
1.2.   Principles
A message can first be controlled at system level (e.g. the CONTRL message) to detect syntax errors and to acknowledge its receipt. It shall be then transmitted to the application process to be processed.
When an acknowledgement is necessary an APERAK message shall be sent specifying the reasons of acknowledgement. If an error is detected at the application level, which prevents its complete processing, an APERAK message shall be sent to the original message issuer providing details of the error(s) encountered. In case of application error, the APERAK message shall be transmitted manually.
In case of acknowledgement the APERAK message shall be processed automatically or manually, at recipient’s discretion.
2.   ERI RESPONSE MESSAGE ERIRSP
The ERIRSP message is derived from the UN/EDIFACT APERAK message. The response messages to the functions (new, modification or cancellation) of the notification message ERINOT have all the same structure. The response to a ‘modification’ or a ‘cancellation’ contains information whether or not the ‘modification’ or ‘cancellation’ has been processed by the receiving system. A response is required only if the NAD (1)/COM segment, with qualifier ‘EI’, contains the mailbox number, or with qualifier ‘EM’, contains the email address where the response is to be returned to.

2.   MESSAGE FUNCTION
2.1.   Functional definition
The BERMAN message is a message from a carrier, its agent or a vessel to the responsible port authority, requesting a berth, giving details of the call, ship, berth requirements and expected operations (3). It is based on the EDIFACT BERMAN message as published in the UN/EDIFACT D 04B directory.
2.2.   Field of application
The message is based on and supports the implementation by means of EDI of the following international and European legislation:
(a)
the IMO FAL Form 1 (as also contained in the IMO Compendium on Facilitation and electronic business, document FAL.5/Circ.15, dated 19 February 2001 and also contained in Directive 2010/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (4));
(b)
International ship and port facility security (ISPS) code, adopted by the Conference of Contracting Governments of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) on 12 December 2002, in the amendments to the annex to the International Convention of Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), 1974 and Regulation (EC) No 725/2004.
2.3.   Message principles
The following principles shall apply to the BERMAN message as defined in these technical specifications for the purpose of electronic ship reporting in inland navigation:
1.
A message shall contain information on only one means of transport/conveyance.
2.
One message shall relate to one visit of a ship to one port of call.
3.
The visit of the vessel shall be identified by a unique call reference number that is issued by or on behalf of the authority in the port (e.g. the port authority or the customs authority).
4.
The message shall incorporate the information related to applicable requirements regarding the notification of a ship to a port. It shall support one request for the ship — be it for entering the port, berthing on arrival of the ship, leaving the berth on departure of the ship or shifting of berths for the ship within the port or for only transiting through the port area.
5.
The arrival notification shall contain all details regarding the movement of the ship from outside the port area to the first berth in the port area. The additional services to be arranged for arrival at the first berth (e.g. arrangement of pilots, VTS, tugboats, and linesmen) may be specified. The ETA (estimated time of arrival) at the entry point and previous port of call of the ship shall be given.
6.
A shift berthing request shall contain all details as to the movement from one berth to the next berth in the same port area. The additional services to be arranged (e.g. arrangement of tugboats, pilots or linesman) may be specified for each berth separately. The ETD (estimated time of departure) for the first berth is mandatory. The shift berthing request shall further contain the other berths that are planned to be visited during the ship's call, including the ETA at those berths.
7.
A departure request shall contain all details related to the departure of the ship from the (last) berth in the port area. Additional services to be arranged for departure from the berth (e.g. arrangement of tugboats, pilots or linesman) may be specified. The ETD from the berth and the next port of call of the ship shall be given upon departure.
8.
The message shall cater for the provision of sending a replacement or a cancellation of a previously sent original message.
9.
The message content shall be uniquely identified by means of the message reference (in BGM 1004) and the message sender identification (in NAD(MS) 3039). All other identifying data, such as the unique ship ID of the ship or the voyage number, are secondary references. The sending of replacements and updates also makes use of this principle.

Directive 2005/44/EC on harmonised river information services (RIS) on inland waterways in the EU
WHAT IS THE AIM OF THE LEGISLATION?
Directive 2005/44/EC establishes river information services (RIS), aiming to: increase competitiveness in the sector;optimise the use of existing inland waterway infrastructures;improve safety and security in waterway transport;reduce the sector’s negative environmental impacts.
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1744 outlines detailed technical specifications for electronic ship reporting and repeals Regulation (EU) No 164/2010.
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/838 outlines detailed technical specifications for vessel tracking and tracing systems and repeals Regulation (EC) No 415/2007.
Implementing Regulation (EU) No 909/2013, as amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1973, defines technical specifications for the electronic chart display and information system.
Regulation (EC) No 416/2007, as amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2032, defines the technical specifications for notices to skippers.
Regulation (EC) No 414/2007 defines guidelines for RIS planning, implementation and operations.
KEY POINTS
              
Directive 2005/44/EC establishes EU river information services (RIS) aiming to enhance safety, efficiency and environmental friendliness and facilitate interfaces with other transport modes. EU countries are responsible for its implementation, including establishing RIS centres and designating authorities to oversee its application and the exchange of international data. The European Commission is responsible for setting out technical guidelines for RIS planning, implementation and operations in a series of implementing acts.
RIS are the harmonised information services to support traffic and transport management in inland navigation, including interfaces with other transport modes. RIS may interface with commercial activities other than those happening internally between companies. RIS comprise services, such as:
geographical, hydrological, and administrative information about the waterway (fairway information),
traffic information,
traffic management,
calamity abatement support,
information for transport management,
statistics and customs services,
waterway charges and port dues.
The directive outlines a framework to develop technical requirements and specifications to:
achieve a harmonised exchange of information between different actors providing RIS;
improve the interaction with other traffic management systems of other transport modes, in particular maritime vessel traffic management and information services;
develop interoperable systems for inland waterway transport services;
set up a framework to develop guidelines and specifications.
Annexes specify minimum data requirements and principles covering RIS guidelines and technical specifications. The Commission can adopt implementing acts amending the annexes in the light of experience and technical progress.
Regulation (EC) No 414/2007 defines guidelines for RIS planning, implementation and operations, including:
participating vessels;
RIS architecture, including stakeholders, service providers, users, objectives, tasks and applications;
recommendations for individual services, including: a radiotelephone service,an internet service,the electronic chart display and information system for inland navigation (Inland ECDIS),traffic information,traffic management,navigational support,lock and bridge management,calamity abatement support,information for transport logistics,information for law enforcement;
RIS planning, including training;
stepwise development of RIS;
RIS standardisation procedures.
Regulation (EC) No 416/2007, as amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2032, defines the technical specifications for notices to skippers. Fairway information services (FIS) are used by boat-masters and fleet managers to plan, execute and monitor a voyage. The terms ‘boat-master’, ‘skipper’ and ‘shipmaster’ are considered equivalent in RIS.
FIS provide dynamic information (such as water levels and water-level predictions) as well as static information (such as the operating times of locks and bridges), thereby helping users to make tactical and strategic navigation decisions.
Implementing Regulation (EU) No 909/2013, as amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1973, defines technical specifications for the electronic chart display and information system for inland navigation (Inland ECDIS). Its annex includes detailed specifications for:
performance standards,
data standards,
codes for producers and waterways,
presentation standards,
operational and performance requirements, methods of testing and required test results,
measures to ensure software quality,
system configurations.
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/838 repeals Regulation (EC) No 415/2007 and outlines detailed technical specifications for vessel tracking and tracing systems in inland waterway transport, including rules related to aids to navigation in inland navigation.
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1744 repeals Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 and outlines detailed technical specifications for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation, including:
a message implementation manual convention for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation, based on the United Nations rules for Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce and Transport (UN/EDIFACT)*:(dangerous) goods reporting,passenger and crew lists,response and receipt message (an automatic response sent using the EDIFACT protocol indicating the receipt of a message),berth management port notification (where a vessel needs to unload its cargo, it notifies the relevant port in advance; this allows the port to manage how it allocates berths);
codes and references used in electronic ship reporting for inland navigation.
