🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR Subchapter E – Load Lines • Difference between survey interval and certificate validity period • How long a load line certificate remains in force before renewal, assuming required surveys are completed

💭 Think About

• Think about how often major statutory certificates (like load line and safety construction) are usually renewed for seagoing vessels. • Consider whether the regulation talks about annual surveys versus the total life of the certificate – which one is this question asking about? • Ask yourself: Is the number of years closer to a typical drydock/special survey cycle, or to a short-term temporary certificate?

✅ Before You Answer

• Locate the specific section in 46 CFR Subchapter E that addresses the period of validity of an international and coastwise load line certificate, not the survey frequency. • Confirm that you are reading about a full-term load line certificate, not an interim or short-term certificate. • Double-check that the period you choose matches the usual IMO/International Load Line Convention practice for full-term certificates.
