The German 1881 Regulations have been translated but not reviewed as with the exception of the "Anotar," that got away from Macao in 1891 (after fitting in Hong Kong) with a cargo of emigrants for West Africa and the "Tetartos" that also left Macao for the Brazils in 1892. Transit voyages of more than 30 days in German ships do not take place.

Vague uncertainty and that breaches of the Regulations are punishable to 150 Marks = $75.
The principal defects therefore in the German Regulations are that they never appear to have been published, are only in force for 3 ports, Canton, Amoy (or possibly Swatow was meant, though it is not named), and Swatow.
