Overview

ISO 10087:2022/Amd 1:2026, titled Small craft - Craft identification - Coding system - Amendment 1, is an international standard published by ISO (International Organization for Standardization). This document amends the existing ISO 10087:2022, focusing on the identification and coding systems for small craft. It introduces key updates to the craft identification numbering (CIN) system used worldwide to uniquely identify individual small boats, thereby enhancing traceability and regulatory compliance for manufacturers, authorities, and owners.

This amendment streamlines the requirements for a standardized craft identification number, promotes international harmonization, and supports safety and market surveillance across the recreational and commercial boating sectors.

Key Topics

• Craft Identification Number (CIN) Structure
  The amendment specifies that a craft identification number must be a unique 14-character string with a hyphen, formatted according to the standard's requirements. The format ensures clarity and uniformity across all small crafts.

• Manufacturer’s Identification Code
  The updated standard clarifies that the three-character manufacturer’s identification code is issued by a national authority, either directly to the manufacturer or a recognized organization. To minimize errors, the numerals 0 and 1 are excluded from the code.

• Serial Number Composition
  Each craft receives a five-character serial number made up of numerals and/or letters. Certain letters (I, O, Q) are omitted to avoid misinterpretation.

• Correction of Identification Errors
  The amendment introduces a specific clause requiring manufacturers to correct both visible and hidden identification numbers on the craft in the event of an error. This change helps preserve the integrity of boat identification records.

Applications

• Manufacturers of Small Craft
  Boat builders and OEMs must apply the revised craft identification structure to all newly built small crafts, ensuring each vessel has a unique and traceable identifier.

• National Regulatory Authorities
  Authorities are responsible for assigning manufacturer’s codes and enforcing compliance, supporting effective registration, safety recalls, and theft prevention.

• Maritime Safety and Law Enforcement
  Accurate and consistent identification numbers facilitate vessel tracking, accident investigations, and regulatory checks, enhancing safety and legal enforcement.

• Owners and Operators
  Clear identification supports boat registration, insurance documentation, and resale, providing assurance of authenticity and history.

Related Standards

• ISO 10087:2022 - The base standard for small craft identification coding systems, detailing general requirements and applications.
• ISO/TC 188 - Technical committee responsible for standards relating to small craft.
• CEN/TC 464 - European technical committee collaborating with ISO for alignment and harmonization in the boating industry.

ISO 10087:2022/Amd 1:2026 is essential for all stakeholders in the small craft industry to ensure global consistency and robust vessel identification. Implementing this standard not only supports regulatory compliance but also fosters safer and more efficient maritime operations.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
