Mandatory SMS for charter
A documented Safety Management System with 11 required sections — now mandatory for every charter operation, regardless of vessel length.
CodedOK is the compliance app for UK & Irish coded vessels. Snap your certificates, see your gaps against the 2025 Code, and stay survey-ready all year.
For 20 years, UK coded vessels were certified under MGN 280. From 1 December 2025, that framework is replaced by the new MCA Sport & Pleasure Vessel Code Edition 1 — and the bar rises for every charter operation in the UK. Operators who don't update their evidence lose charter days, fail surveys, and risk losing their certification.
A documented Safety Management System with 11 required sections — now mandatory for every charter operation, regardless of vessel length.
A single-route stability declaration replaces the old patchwork. Under-15m vessels need the new template by their next renewal.
EPIRB now required for Cat 0–2 (was Cat 0–1). Life raft service certificates must be on file, not just stickers. First aid spec updated.
Four signed, dated, version-controlled declarations now required: operating area, persons carried, stability, charter type.
Existing coding certs valid through Dec 2026. But new vessels, change-of-owner, or change-of-use from 1 Dec 2025 must use the new Code from day one.
An expired flare cancels a charter. A missed renewal fails a survey. The transition year is when surveyors flag the most issues — across every coast.
Auto-loads the new schedule per vessel. Runs a gap analysis against the 2025 requirements. Drafts your 11-section SMS in plain English. Renewal reminders 90 / 60 / 30 days before expiry. Surveyor sign-off in the app. The transition year handled.
Photograph any coding cert, PLI, liferaft service or radio licence. AI extracts the expiry, issuer and serial number — no retyping.

Push reminders 90 / 60 / 30 days before expiry. Surveyor cross-org access. Signed inspection-pack PDF on demand.

Perfect — that's what CodedOK is built for. Photograph each one. AI reads issuer, expiry, serial, and files it against the right vessel. Works on creased, faded, or partially-obscured paperwork too.
Only when you invite them. Surveyor seat is free per vessel. They see your full record from their own login, sign off the inspection in the app, and the signed pack lands in your inbox.

CodedOK is a compliance-tracking tool for UK and Irish coded vessel operators. You're responsible for the accuracy of the data you enter, and ultimately for your vessel's compliance with the MCA Sport or Pleasure Vessel Code 2025 and Workboat Code Edition 3. CodedOK is a recordkeeping aid — it does not certify or replace inspections by a recognised surveyor.
You agree to keep your sign-in credentials confidential and to notify us if you suspect unauthorised access. We may suspend accounts that violate these terms or that we reasonably believe pose a risk to other users.
New accounts receive a 14-day free trial of the full feature set. Paid plans are not yet available; this section will be updated before charging starts. You may delete your account at any time from the Account screen — your data is removed within 30 days.
CodedOK is provided on an "as is" basis. We do our best to keep it running and accurate, but we don't guarantee uptime, freedom from bugs, or that the app catches every compliance issue. To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to the fees you've paid us in the preceding 12 months.
We'll notify you in the app before any material change to these terms. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.

CodedOK tracks compliance separately for each jurisdiction. UK and Ireland have different legal requirements — selecting both keeps you covered for cross-border operation.
