Samkvæmt a-lið 9. gr. laga nr. 219/2012 um Samgöngustofu, stjórnsýslustofnun samgöngumála skulu fyrirmæli alþjóðasamþykkta IMO sem Ísland er aðili að öðlast gildi og binda alla frá og með deginum eftir birtingu þeirra á vef Samgöngustofu ef þau geyma ekki aðrar ákvarðanir um gildistöku sína. Í a-lið 9. gr. segir:
„Birting alþjóðlegra reglna á sviði siglinga
Viðaukar og kóðar við alþjóðasamninga á sviði siglinga, sem Ísland er aðili að, skulu birtir á vef Samgöngustofu, enda hafi meginefni viðkomandi alþjóðasamninga verið birt í C-deild Stjórnartíðinda. Einnig skal birta á vef Samgöngustofu dreifibréf og leiðbeiningarreglur sem Alþjóðasiglingamálastofnunin eða önnur alþjóðastofnun gefur út til nánari skýringar á framkvæmd viðkomandi alþjóðasamninga. Heimilt er að birta eingöngu erlendan frumtexta af viðaukum, kóðum, dreifibréfum og leiðbeiningarreglum.
Við birtingu skv. 1. mgr. skal útgáfudagur tilgreindur. Fyrirmælum sem felast í viðaukum, kóðum, dreifibréfum og leiðbeiningarreglum skal ekki beitt fyrr en birting hefur farið fram á vef Samgöngustofu, nema þau geymi ákvæði algerlega einkamálaeðlis og aðilar hafi komið sér saman um að skipti þeirra fari eftir óbirtum fyrirmælum. Fyrirmælin skulu binda alla frá og með deginum eftir birtingu þeirra á vef Samgöngustofu ef þau geyma ekki aðrar ákvarðanir um gildistöku sína.
Þeim sem þess óska skal gefinn kostur á að fá sendar tilkynningar frá Samgöngustofu þegar birtir eru nýir viðaukar eða kóðar, auk dreifibréfa og leiðbeiningarreglna, eða þeim breytt. Ráðherra er heimilt að kveða nánar á um efni þessarar greinar í reglugerð.“

13) In order to eliminate certain obstacles to the ratification of the 1996 HNS Convention, a number of provisions of the Convention have been amended by the 2010 HNS Protocol. The Convention, as amended by its Protocol will, once the Protocol enters into force, constitute the 2010 HNS Convention. In order to avoid a situation in which two conflicting regimes would become operational, States that decide to become Parties to the 2010 HNS Protocol must ensure that they deposit instruments only in respect of the Protocol, without any references to the 1996 HNS Convention (see resolution 3 of the International Conference of 2010 on the Revision of the HNS Convention).
