During the recent bilateral visit, both governments welcomed “continued dialogue” between India’s DG Shipping and Maritime New Zealand on strengthening recognition of seafarer competency certificates. This is a positive signal — but for thousands of Indian Masters and Officers, it remains just that: a signal, not a solution.
India is on the IMO’s STCW White List, confirming full compliance with international training and certification standards. India already holds bilateral STCW I/10 mutual recognition agreements with the UK, Australia, Canada, Ireland, Singapore, UAE, and others. Yet New Zealand has no equivalent MOU with India for officer-level certificates — meaning a fully qualified Indian Master or Officer cannot have their CoC recognised to serve on an NZ-flagged vessel, while Rating-level certificates already are.
