Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: When a ship interfaces with a non-ISPS compliant ship.
A Declaration of Security (DoS) is an agreement between a ship and a port facility, or between two ships, specifying the security measures each will implement. It is required when a ship is operating at a higher security level than the port facility or another ship, or when interfacing with a non-ISPS compliant entity to ensure necessary security protocols are met.
