Private standard setting by non‐State actors has gained increasing attention and has expanded to regulating various activities. Maritime activities are no exception. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) sets private standards to govern maritime activities in cooperation with the International Maritime Organization. These ISO standards are incorporated in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea system and will likely play a more important role in the future. However, the relationship between these standards and the law of the sea has not yet been analysed. This article therefore examines the contribution of private standards, especially those set by the ISO, to ocean governance and evaluates this contribution from a global administrative law perspective. Since the ISO is the largest entity that sets private standards, it can serve as a model for other non‐State actors that set private standards to govern maritime activities.

国际标准化组织对海洋治理的贡献

非国家行为者制定私人标准已引起越来越多的关注，并已扩展到规范各种活动。海上活动也不例外。国际标准化组织（ISO）与国际海事组织合作制定私人标准来管理海事活动。这些ISO标准已被纳入《联合国海洋法公约》系统，并且将来可能会扮演更重要的角色。但是，这些标准与海洋法之间的关系尚未得到分析。因此，本文研究了私有标准（尤其是ISO制定的私有标准）对海洋治理的贡献，并从全球行政法的角度评估了这种贡献。由于ISO是设定私人标准的最大实体，
