Register as a Seafarer

You will need a Seafarer Identification Number (SIN)  before any certificate is issued to you. If you hold a Certificate of Competency or a Radio Certificate, a Seafarer Identification Number (SIN) will already have been assigned to you.  When you register as a Seafarer you also have the option of creating an online Seafarer account. Your SIN can be used to login to your online account and should be used on all future correspondence with the Mercantile Marine Office. To request your SIN, please register using the link below.

 

Note: when you select the Register link below, you will be asked to confirm if you are registering as a Seafarer in order to attend for a medical . If so, please ensure you confirm this. In all other circumstances, eg. if you are registering as a Seafarer in order to attend a Maritime Training Course, you will be required to upload a photo of yourself and your signature.
