The International Maritime Organization (IMO) number is a unique identification number assigned to ships and other maritime vessels. This number is assigned by the IMO and is designed to enhance maritime safety, security, and environmental protection by providing a way to track the history of a vessel throughout its operational life. The IMO number is a seven-digit number that is permanently assigned to a ship and does not change, even if the ship is sold or its name is changed.
