The Association of Marine Surveyors of British Columbia (A.M.S.B.C) was formed in 1969 under The Society Act of B.C. for the purpose of bringing together General Marine Surveyors with the object of enhancing and developing the practice of general marine surveying while providing a representative body in approaching the maritime industry.

We are affiliated with The International Institute of Marine Surveying.

Our membership comprises practicing Marine Surveyors situated throughout the province of British Columbia, particularly at the principal ports of Vancouver, Victoria, Nanaimo, Prince Rupert and Kitimat, who bring to the Association their particular experience providing a broad and diverse input. The members of this Association have undertaken to perform their respective services in keeping with the Code of Ethics and Constitution of the Association.

Surveys provided by our membership range through hulls, machinery, cargo and terminals (port operations) to surveys of special or particular nature embraced in the term "Marine Related Transport".
