Classification societies are discharging various functions in the interest of flag States and shipowners. They are important actors in the system of maritime safety. Because the liability of shipowners is limited, classification societies have been considered as exempt from liability for a long time - and in several jurisdictions this view still prevails.

Moreover, the fundamental aspects of an international convention on the limitation of the liability of classification societies are developed.
