Hyundai Merchant Marine (HMM) has adopted the INTTRA eVGM Service as a channel to facilitate compliance with the International Maritime Organisation's (IMO) Safety of Life at Sea (Solas) verified gross mass (VGM) amendment. 

“Many of HMM’s customers are already using INTTRA eVGM. By joining the eVGM network, HMM will provide those customers and additional shippers on the network with simplicity and efficiency in submitting VGM information, facilitating even better customer service,” said Jim Whalen, INTTRA president, Asia. 

INTTRA’s eVGM Service is available in two versions – for carriers and shippers.
