Seafarers

Last year, the number of cases of crew abandonment more than doubled compared to the record level of 2023.

Director of the State Enterprise “Morrichservice” Iryna Kostyuk reported on 2024.

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has approved an updated National Transport Strategy aimed at restoring and modernizing the infrastructure.

“Morrichservice” shared the results of its own work for the year – yes, it was possible to provide 20,259 services for the registration of various seafarer documents and for conducting exams.

In 2024, more than 30,000 Ukrainians submitted online applications for confirmation of qualifications and assignment of a title.

Imagine the times when military fleets set off on multi-month voyages, and the lives of sailors depended not only on the course of hostilities, but also on the banal level of medical support. Infectious diseases, injuries, and lack of proper care caused significant losses among military crews.

How a native of Bukovina developed the medical charter of the military fleet and why every Ukrainian should know about it, read in the USM material.

Thanks to the new service on the Diya portal, Ukrainian seafarers saved more than $600,000 in two months.

Guidelines on the Fair Treatment of Seafarers Detained on Suspicion of Crimes were approved in Geneva.

The State Qualification Commission of Seafarers will work in an intensified mode until the end of the year to graduate every seafarer.

The Shipping Administration submitted about 100 complaints to law enforcement agencies regarding possible forgery of documents.
