Net tonnage ( NT , N.T. or nt ) is a dimensionless index calculated from the total moulded volume of the ship's cargo spaces by using a mathematical formula. Defined in The International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships that was adopted by the International Maritime Organization in 1969, the net tonnage replaced the earlier net register tonnage (NRT) which denoted the volume of the ship's revenue-earning spaces in "register tons", units of volume equal to 100 cubic feet (2.83 m ). Net tonnage is used to calculate the port duties and should not be taken as less than 30 per cent of the ship's gross tonnage .

The Net tonnage calculation is defined in Regulation 4 of Annex 1 of The International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, 1969 .

One of the Convention's goals was to ensure that the new units "did not differ too greatly" from the traditional GRT and NRT units. Both NT and GT are obtained by measuring ship's volume and then applying a mathematical formula. Net tonnage is based on "the moulded volume of all cargo spaces of

252-600: The Summer Load Line draft is used, with the exception of cases where that is a timber load line. For passenger ships, the draft used is the deepest subdivision load line assigned in accordance with the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea . Otherwise, if a ship has been assigned a load line by its national government, the draft for that summer load line is used. If the ship has no load line, instead,

336-459: The final value of NT shall not be taken as less than 0.30 GT. The difference between the cases of 12 of fewer passengers and 13 or more passengers is due to a restriction given in the net tonnage definition that states "...when N 1 + N 2 is less than 13, N 1 and N 2 shall be taken as zero." In the United States , net tonnage is used to determine eligibility for registering boats with

357-494: The final value of NT shall not be taken as less than 0.30 GT. When calculating NT for ships certified to carry 13 or more passengers, an additional term is used in the NT formula. It is based on three additional variables: First, a multiplier K 3 , based on the ship's gross tonnage is found, K 3 = 1.25 × ( G T + 10000 ) 10000 {\displaystyle K_{3}={\frac {1.25\times (GT+10000)}{10000}}} Then

378-407: The net register tonnage, the net tonnage is unitless and thus can not be defined as "tons" or "net tons". The International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, 1969 was adopted by IMO in 1969. Ships built before that date were given 12 years to migrate from their existing tonnage to use of NT and GT. The phase-in period was provided to allow ships time to adjust economically, since tonnage

In addition, a ship's net tonnage is constrained to be no less than 30% of her gross tonnage . The net tonnage calculation is based on a number of factors, one of which is the moulded draft d . The choice of the value to use for d can be complicated. For ships subject to the International Convention on Load Lines ,
