GENERAL QUESTIONS

  • Does Honduras issue CoC and CoP?  Honduras issue COC for officers and also for ratings
  • What is the Validity of SBK? Does the SB follows the CoC or CoP expiration dates?   Any new SB has 5 years validity, therefore follows the COC dates

  • Who can issue seaman’s book for Marine Technician? Uganda, Belize & Panama but read the requirements for these flags.

  • I have already valid medical certificate. Is this accepted for the application? Both Honduras and Belize accept Medicals only in their own forms. We strongly recommend to send these medical forms to the interested companies, so they can at least give these forms to their seafarers so they can have them available to their doctor visits.
