Here are the clarifications as to the interpretation of Section VIII, ‘‘Transitory Provision’’ of MARINA Circular No. 2019-01
1. Seafarers holding valid Seafarer’s Identification and Record Books (SIRB) need not apply for Seafarer Identity Document (SID). The SIRB’s continues to serve as identification documents for Filipino Seafarers.
2. The issuance of Seafarer’s Record Books (SRBs), together with Seafarer’s Identity Documents (SIDs), becomes mandatory only upon expiration of their current SIRB’s
3. Nonetheless, application for the issuance of SID shall be optional for Filipino seafarers holding valid SIRB. However, issuance of SID and SRB shall be applied 6 months prior to the expiration of the SIRB.
4. Filipino Seafarers on-board ships trading domestic waters are not required to have SIDs.
