How to Apply for Belize Endorsement - New Requirements

In order to comply with Manila Amendments IMMARBE  have developed a new design of CRA. Security features have been inserted in the new IMMARBE 2010 STCW Certificates.  Due to these security features, which react to being exposed to any heating element (laminator, scanner, photocopier) it is no longer necessary to laminate the original certificates.  It is the sole responsibility of the Seafarers to protect and ensure that his documents are in kept in a secure place.  

In this regard, the requirements regarding the submission of documents have changed. Please refer to  the new requirements below.

 

1.Certificate of Receipt of Application

A CRA can be issued only when all supporting documents have been received and are in order.

Note that applications for more than one endorsement certificate by a single seafarer can be made on a single application form, provided that all necessary details for each certificate is included in the form. Example: Master, GOC endorsement certificates can be applied for using one application form, however, ensure to include all certificate numbers, expiry date and capacities on the form. Similar to the Declaration form, the application form should also be signed by the applicant (seafarer).

2. Make sure to use the updated forms provided by IMMARBE as per the list:
