The Guinea-Bissau International Ships Registry (GB ISR) has issued Technical Service Circular TSC 02-2025, informing shipowners, operators, and managers of the recent publication by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) of MSC.1/Circ.1601/Rev.2 (30 June 2025), titled “Revised Industry Counter Piracy Guidance.” The Circular highlights the introduction of the new Best Management Practices Maritime Security (BMP MS) — a consolidated and globally applicable framework that replaces earlier regional versions of the BMP series. GB ISR recommends that all vessels flying the Guinea-Bissau flag review and implement the updated BMP MS measures within their Ship Security Plans (SSPs) and company-level procedures to ensure compliance with international maritime security best practices.https://gbisr.com/imo-developments/
