Articles 4(2) and (3)(d) of the Convention. Compulsory particulars. Form and content of seafarers’ identity documents. In response to its previous comment, the Committee notes with interest the adoption of a new maritime workbook which includes the elements required under this provision of the Convention. It also notes a specimen copy of this document sent by the Government, which is in conformity with Article 4(2) and (3)(d) of the Convention.

Article 5. Readmission to a territory. In response to its previous comment, the Committee notes with interest that the new maritime workbook specifies the period of validity of this document. However, the Committee notes that neither this booklet nor the national legislation ensure a deadline for the seafarer’s readmission to the national territory after the workbook’s expiry. The Committee recalls that Article 5(2) provides that the period of readmission shall be of at least one year after the date of expiry indicated in the identity document. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures without further delay to ensure the implementation of this provision of the Convention.
