Certificate of insurance or any other financial security in respect of civil liability for oil pollution damage (International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1992)".

All EU coastal States are either parties to, or in the process of ratifying, the 1992 Protocols to the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution (CLC) and the International Convention setting up the Oil Pollution Compensation Fund (Fund Convention).

The shipowner loses the right to limit his liability only if it is proved that the pollution damage resulted from his personal act or omission, committed with the intent to cause damage, or recklessly and with knowledge that such damage would probably result.

These two conventions establish a two-tier liability system, which cover pollution damage, including preventive measures and to a limited extent environmental damage per se for accidents occurring in the coastal waters (up to 200 miles) of the States.
