The first Ukrainian sailor confirmed qualification through “Diya”
The first sailor confirmed his qualification online through the “Diya” portal. The sailor will soon receive a ready certificate with confirmation from the Shipping Administration through a representative.
In general, an electronic copy of the document will appear in the personal account, and the original can be obtained after the flight, the press service of “Diya” reported.
It is reported that the service has already been tested in practice. The on-call mechanic submitted an application on the portal, passed the check and received a notification that the documents were ready.
As noted in “Diya”, sailors had to pay bribes of up to 5 thousand dollars for qualification. The registries were controlled by private companies, and corrupt officials earned up to $150 million a year. Now seafarers will be able to submit documents online without intermediaries.
“The service is currently in the final stages before launch. After beta testing, we will open the service for all sailors,” “Diya” added.
