Summary/Abstract: This study analyzes the functionality of the latest BAPLIE versions, focusing on their compliance with applicable International Maritime Organization regulations. The analysis reveals that while BAPLIE 3.1 has made significant improvements compared to its predecessor, version 2.2, there are still discrepancies between the EDI standards and the requirements set by SOLAS. To enhance safety and reliability, this study recommends making certain optional elements mandatory and introducing new elements to convey essential information. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the need for a more robust IMO regulatory framework and the involvement of industry leaders in standardizing critical safety-related data exchange and solidifying the operational integrity of global container shipping logistics
