Dear Mr Casper
I understand that you would now like to apply for a CEC as a Chief
Mate.
I am sorry but you will have to send in some of your documents again as
the original COC was verified by Deeside Crewing.
You do not need to send in new photographs, but we do need all the
other documents again and with correct attestations, I have listed the
full requirements below to assist you.
Regarding payment please do not send cash, please follow the
instructions for cheque or bank transfer.
To make a CEC application please submit the following documents:
1. Completed application form (declaration signed by the seafarer)
2. Non-UK Certificate of Competency
3. Proof of the seafarer's standard of English
4. Passport or discharge book
5. Two Passport photos - we already have these.
6. Â?76 Fee
1. The application form can be downloaded from our website using the
following link:
https://mcanet.mcga.gov.uk/adobe/formspublic/getformharness.asp?formname=CEC.
Please ensure the signature is contained within the box in section 4.
2. A list of all countries we have agreements with for the purpose of
issuing CECs can be found on our website at
http://www.mcga.gov.uk/c4mca/mcga-dqs-st-stc-cec.htm
3. Acceptable forms of evidence of English language can be found in
Annex 4 of MGN 221. The most common form of evidence is the Marlins Test
and the minimum acceptable pass marks can also be found in Annex 4. For
a list of MCA approved Marlins Test centres around the world please
visit the Marlins website at
www.marlins.co.uk. To accompany the Marlins
Test we require the employing company to interview the seafarer to
confirm his/her standard of spoken English is acceptable for the
capacity he/she will be employed. The results of the interview can be
relayed in a letter from the company to the MCA. Alternatively, some
Marlins centres offer the Test of Spoken English (TOSE) which is
acceptable.
5. Please ensure each photograph has been attested by a non-family
member of the seafarer as a true likeness. Please refer to page 5 of the
application form.
6. You can pay by cheque, bankers draft or postal order (payable to The
Maritime and Coastguard Agency) or directly into our bank, details as
follows:
Bank Name: Lloyds TSB
Account Number: 0209649
Bank Sort Code: 30-00-02
Account Name: Maritime and Coastguard Agency
BIC: LOYDGB2LCTY
IBAN: GB82 LOYD 3000 0200 2096 49
If you decide to transfer money you will need to clarify with your own
bank what charges they make for transferring money into our account and
allow for this when crediting funds. Please also ensure that you state
your reference number or name & date of birth in the payment details
which you provide when making this payment to assist us in allocating
your payment.
