The International Marine Certification Institute (acronym: IMCI) was established in Brussels, Belgium as an independent certification organisation to serve the interests of the European and International recreational boating industry.[1]
With the establishment of the European Communities Directive for Recreational Craft (94/25/EC), IMCI is able to provide certification services to manufacturers who desire to market their boats, yachts, and certain components in the European market.[2][3]
IMCI has a team of 47 qualified international inspectors for the certification process. They represent 21 countries not only of the EU and their experience and backgrounds ensure a quality IMCI certification program what emphasizes strict compliance with the essential elements or the Directive. These Inspectors will support and advise clients during the process.
