What are Notices to Mariners?

The situation at sea changes continuously. The Hydrographic Service

monitors changes and publishes the necessary corrections to its publications
in order to give mariners information about the current situation. It does so
by issuing Notices to Mariners.

Corrections to nautical charts and publications

Notices to Mariners (NtM) are corrections to nautical charts and
publications. NtM only contain information which is vitally important to
safety at sea. Mariners are obliged to keep their products up-to-date with
NtM until a new edition is issued. NtM only apply to editions in force. As
soon as an edition is cancelled it is no longer possible to correct this product
with an NtM. You should always use the latest edition of a chart or
publication.
