The provision says listed vessels are subject to inspection.

海軍艦長可以命令前條所列的船舶停航接受檢查，並可用不同方式通告；不遵從時，還可進一步採取警告或砲擊措施。

船舶奉命停航後，艦長應派軍官帶士兵登船臨檢。

臨檢軍官登船後，應先以禮貌請求檢閱船舶文書；如果船長拒絕，臨檢軍官可以強迫檢閱。

臨檢軍官檢閱船舶文書後，如認為沒有第十二條所列嫌疑，應先報准艦長，再放行船舶。

臨檢軍官離船時，必須在該船的航海記事簿記明臨檢日、時、地點、本艦艦名、艦長及臨檢軍官姓名。

中立國軍艦護送船舶時，護送艦長在中華民國海軍艦長要求後，應立即提交貨物性質、船員名冊、乘客名冊與到達地點的報告；若能證明沒有第十二條所列嫌疑，得免除臨檢。

The inspection should be carried out on the inspected vessel’s original route, but it may be done at a designated location if the weather is severe or to avoid losses to both sides.

Ship inspections, searches, and seizure are not allowed in a neutral state’s territorial sea or in a lawfully established neutral zone.

If the boarding/inspection officer, after reviewing a ship’s documents, still suspects something, the officer may search the ship.

船長或其代理人必須開啟被搜索船內鎖閉的場所、器具或貨物；不遵行時，將依本條例相關規定處理。

臨檢軍官在搜索後如果認為不應拿捕，應先報准艦長，再放行。

第十七條至第十九條的規定，在搜索時適用。

臨檢軍官在搜索後如果認為需要拿捕，應先報准艦長，再依本條例第四章規定拿捕。

列出可被拿捕的船舶類型，並排除某些不參與軍事行動的船舶。

Before an arrest, the reason must be communicated to the ship’s captain and officers must be placed on board to control the ship; if that is impossible because of severe weather or another accident, the ship may be ordered to sail to a designated place for handling.

船舶經拿捕後，艦長應立即監管船員不得使用無線電等通信器材，並扣押船舶文書、清點貨物與物品造冊、封閉船艙。

被拿捕船舶上的船長、船員和乘客，除明顯參戰者外，依國籍與宣誓條件分別決定是否俘虜或釋放。

除前條規定外，應准許俘虜者及必要之證人在最近口岸登陸。

This article defines “enemy state” and says recognized belligerent groups are treated the same as belligerent states for maritime capture matters.

Captured ship mail should be forwarded, except mail sent from or delivered to a blockaded area, or mail harmful to the Republic of China or the Allied powers.

艦長應把臨檢、搜索及拿捕船舶的情形記入本艦航海記事簿，並作成詳細報告，且儘速分別報告海軍總司令及所隸艦隊司令。

艦長對臨檢、搜索或拿捕有疑義時，應立即電報海軍總司令核示；如船舶拿捕後發現確有不應拿捕情形，應立即釋放，並分別電報海軍總司令部及所隸艦隊司令。

艦長應將拿捕的船舶送交初級海上捕獲法庭審理。

當拿捕貨物易腐壞且無法送解時，駐船軍官要會同船長作成報告，經艦長同意後，才能在最近的中華民國口岸或經許可的最近中立國口岸拍賣；拍賣經過與價格也要記入航海記事簿，並送交初級海上捕獲法庭。

必要時，艦長可以下令擊毀被拿捕的船舶；但在事前必須先把船上的人員和貨物安置到安全處所，並妥善保全船舶文書。

艦長必須立即將前條所述擊毀理由電報海軍總司令及所屬艦隊司令，並製作記事錄送交初級海上捕獲法庭。

艦長在特定條件下，可以命令釋放被敵國拿捕後又被中華民國艦艇截回的船舶。

被拿捕的船舶，在海上捕獲法庭判決確定前，遇有軍事上緊急需要時，可以被徵用；但依法不得拿捕的，不在此限。

海軍艦隊司令或分遣艦長在戰機緊迫時決定徵用拿捕船舶，應立即報告並補辦核准，並將估價單與物品清單送交初級海上捕獲法庭；有徵用權的長官還要把相關副本和徵用證明書送達船長或所有人。

This provision defines when a ship is treated as an enemy ship.

被拿捕船內的貨物徵用，適用徵用船舶的程序規定。
