Marking of Weight (Packages Transported by Vessels) Convention, 1929 (No. 27) - Kyrgyzstan (RATIFICATION: 1992)

The Committee notes the brief information provided by the Government indicating that no maritime vessels are registered in the Republic of Kyrgyzstan and that virtually no seafarers hold Kyrgyz citizenship. While it can be concluded from this information that there are no port activities in the country, the Government is still under the obligation, pursuant to Article 1(3) of the Convention to ensure that any packages leaving the country are marked in accordance with Article 1(1). The Committee asks the Government to provide information on all measures taken to give full effect, in law and in practice, to the Convention.
