Due to an increased number of applications, the Embassy needs to improve the preparations made by the agents handling seamen’s mustering cases to avoid lengthened handling time. We ask all agents to pay attention to the following when preparing applications for seamen:
25/11/2008 ::
- The Embassy needs 3 days to process applications – this might be extended to 5 days during holiday seasons or in exceptional cases even longer.
- Applications may be submitted in the Embassy opening hours only.
- All documents submitted must, without exception, be stamped and signed originals. Scanned or faxed documents will not be accepted. Agents handling applications on behalf of seamen may obtain authorization from ship owners to sign and stamp applications on their behalf. This authorization must be sent to the Norwegian Embassy in original. All later applications submitted by agents, on behalf of these ship owners, must contain a copy of the authorization.
- All applications must contain information about who the handling agent is and contact information (preferably e-mail) that can be used in case of faulty applications or missing documents. Faulty and incomplete applications will be returned.
- In exceptional cases where shorter handling time is needed this may be requested. A special appointment must be made in advance for each case by e-mail: emb.kiev@mfa.no Please be advised that shorter handling time might not always be possible and should only be requested in exceptional circumstances.
- All applications must, as before, contain certificates and documents as stated at The Norwegian Maritime Directorates web page - http://www.sjofartsdir.no/en/Frontpage/
