Seafarer Certification (SeaCert)
SeaCert is the seafarer certification framework for Maritime New Zealand’s national and international certificates of competency and proficiency and endorsements.

For more information about SeaCert, read the brochure: SeaCert – Your Guide

Maritime New Zealand (MNZ) is providing guidelines with information about:

seafarer certificates and endorsements
transition from old certificates to new
renewal of seafarer certificates
training and prior learning
recognition of foreign certificates.
MNZ is also providing guidelines covering the requirements for ancillary certificates, sea service, medical and eyesight tests, watchkeeping, minimum safe crewing, fees and progression to higher-level certificates. These guidelines are being progressively added to the website. Please note this information is subject to change. Please ensure you are using the most up-to-date version.
