Marine Surveys & Flag State Inspections

At Navis Safety Consulting, we specialize in delivering precise and internationally compliant marine surveys and flag state inspections for shipowners, managers, operators, and registries worldwide. Led by Leonidas Tzaneas, a Chartered Engineer and accredited inspector for major registries including Liberia, Panama, Malta, and Sierra Leone, we ensure your vessel meets the highest standards of safety, condition, and documentation.

Whether you are preparing for a Port State Control (PSC) inspection, changing your flag, or conducting routine Annual Safety Inspections, our inspections go beyond checklists. They deliver confidence, compliance, and continuity.

Our process is designed to deliver measurable outcomes: full compliance, smooth inspections, and zero-defect audit readiness.

We begin by understanding your vessel’s status, operational needs, and compliance requirements. We review your SMS, documents, certificates, and inspection history to identify risk points and priorities.

Our certified inspectors conduct a thorough onboard inspection or remote audit, applying industry-standard checklists aligned with IMO, Flag State, and PSC expectations.

We deliver a clear report with findings and recommendations. Then guide you through corrections, flag transitions, or audit preparation ensuring your vessel is safe, certified, and ready.

With decades of experience and certifications from leading maritime authorities, Leonidas Tzaneas brings proven competence and trusted authority to every inspection. His memberships in RINA, IMarEST, and his Chartered Engineer status reflect a lifelong commitment to maritime safety and technical excellence.
