### Artikel 1
|
|
|
|
When measuring ships in order to ascertain their tonnage, and when marking ships in connection with such measurement, the Contracting Governments undertake to observe the regulations entitled „International Regulations for Tonnage Measurement of Ships”, issued through the League of Nations and dated June 30th, 1939, attached hereto as an Annex, and which will therefore now become the regulations for the measuring and marking of ships, by all the Contracting Governments under this Convention.
|
|
|
|
The Convention and the Annex are subject to modifications according to Article 12.
|
|
|
|
### Artikel 2
|
|
|
|
The measurement and marking of ships shall be carried out through the competent authority, by officers possessing the necessary qualifications. The Government concerned may, however, entrust such measurement and marking to an organisation, duly recognized for this purpose by the Government. In every case the Government concerned fully guarantees the completeness and the efficiency of the measurement and marking.
|
|
|
|
### Artikel 3
|
|
|
|
A certificate, called „International Tonnage Certificate in Accordance with the Convention concluded in Oslo on the tenth of June 1947” (hereafter referred to as International Tonnage Certificate), shall be issued to every ship which has been measured and marked in accordance with this Convention. Such a certificate may not be issued to any other ship.
|
|
|
|
An International Tonnage Certificate shall be issued by the competent authority, or by an organisation duly recognized in accordance with Article 2. In every case the Government concerned assumes full responsibility for the certificate.
|
|
|
|
### Artikel 4
|
|
|
|
The Government of a country to which this Convention applies, may, at the request of, and on behalf of, the Government of any other country to which this Convention applies, cause any ship which belongs to the last-mentioned country to be measured and marked at the expense of the owner of the ship in accordance with the provisions of this Convention, and to issue an International Tonnage Certificate to such a ship under its own responsibility. In the same way measuring and marking may be carried out for a ship which is being built to the order of an owner in another country to which this Convention applies.
|
|
|
|
Any certificate so issued shall contain a statement to the effect that it has been issued at the request of the Government of the country to which the ship belongs, or is intended to belong, and such a certificate shall receive the same recognition as a tonnage certificate issued under article 3 of this Convention.
|
|
|
|
The Government which has issued such a tonnage certificate shall forward to the Government of the country to which the ship belongs, without delay, a certified copy of the Tonnage Certificate and of the Formulae of Measurement on which the certificate is based.
|
|
|
|
When a ship is transferred from a country to which this Convention applies, to any other country to which this Convention applies, the Government of the first-mentioned country shall, at the request of the Government of the last-mentioned country, forward to this Government, without delay, a certified copy of the Tonnage Certificate in force for the ship and of the Formulae of Measurement on which the certificate is based.
|
|
|
|
### Artikel 5
|
|
|
|
The International Tonnage Certificate shall be drawn up in the official language of the country by which it is issued. If that language is not English, the text should be rendered in English, in part or in full, as may be considered appropriate.
|
|
|
|
The form of the Tonnage Certificate shall be that of the appropriate model, given in Appendices 1 and 2 of the Annex.
|
|
|
|
### Artikel 6
|
|
|
|
An International Tonnage Certificate shall remain in force as long as the ship to which it has been issued has not been so altered as not to correspond with the particulars relating to the tonnage or description contained in the Tonnage Certificate.
|
|
|
|
If such an alteration has been made, the ship having been remeasured to a sufficient extent, the Tonnage Certificate shall accordingly be amended or renewed as the competent authority may decide.
|
|
|
|
If a ship provided with an International Tonnage Certificate has been transferred from one country to which this Convention applies, to another country to which this Convention applies, the ship, having been remeasured to a sufficient extent, shall, as soon as practicable, be provided with a new International Tonnage Certificate, issued by or on behalf of the country to which the ship has been transferred.
|
|
|
|
### Artikel 7
|
|

|
|
|
|
**2.** Only officers possessing the necessary qualifications shall be authorized to exercise control as aforesaid.
|
|
|
|
**3.** In no case must the exercise of such control cause any expence or delay to the ship.

|
|
|
**4.**
|
|
|
|
Should the control reveal that the actual conditions on the ship differ from those entered on the Tonnage Certificate, the Government of the country to which the ship belongs shall be informed, without delay, with a view to resolving the question.
