What is the inspection period for liferaft?

All liferafts shall be serviced: at intervals not exceeding 12 months (if impracticable, the administration may extend this period to 17 months)

Recreational Vessels That being said the manufacturer of your life raft does have a service interval that is highly recommended. The most common interval is every 3 years although some rafts still abide by the suggested annual servicing.

2.3 ORC liferafts (ISAF OSR Appendix 1 Part 1), and all liferafts stored in valises, should be serviced at least annually at a service station accredited by the manufacturer.

All inflatable liferafts shall be serviced every twelve months at approved servicing facilities. (c) Service manual. Manufacturers of inflatable liferafts shall prepare service manuals which shall include instruc- tions for opening, inspecting, testing, repairing and repacking each of their approved liferafts.

SOLAS Requirements for Lifeboats The number of lifeboats and liferafts should be enough to accommodate at least 125% of the number of passengers and crew. The lifeboat should not be less than 7.3 m in length. Every ship shall carry at least two lifeboats on either side of the ships; i.e. the port and the starboard.

Some life rafts are certified at packing for three years, others for five, but many sailors simply ignore the expiration date, waiting a couple extra years before going through the expensive inspection and repacking process.
