Initial Preparation  prior  applying  at  MMD

1. Check list .

Get the check list from MMD or   the MMD website


2. Documents.


ALL DOCUMENTS HAVE TO BE ARRANGED IN THE ORDER MENTIONED AND CLIPPED TOGETHER ( NOT STAPLED) AND PLACED INSIDE A TRANSPARENT  PLASTIC SEALABLE COVER .

Ensure all documents as per list are present. Company letter original to be  placed in the application folder .

Refresher courses for  AFF/ FPFF ,  PSCRB/PST, PSSR & MFA  to be done for compliance with STCW 2010.  Else the COC  revalidated will be only till  DEC 2016.

Valid medical required ( within 6 months ) .

DGS profile should be  updated . It  might not be possible to update PSCRB, PST, PSSR and MFA.
do not worry as they do not check that  ( maybe because it cannot be done ; unless you are filling the DGS profile for the first time ever  . In such a case you can enter all the  latest certificate numbers and you will not face the issue of not being able to put in the new numbers in place of the old ones .)
Upload your photograph and signature on to DG profile . ( Use the Documents tab  in the web page to upload these ).

AFF refresher also  has an issue updating as it will say it requires a 4 DAY course while the current course is only 1 day  and does not get saved. ..To get around this issue , follow the steps as mentioned here   .... Enter  any 4 day period and save it , it will get saved. then go to the edit option still available for refresher AFF and edit the dates to the correct date , eg: 28.07.15  to 28.07.15 and save , it will get saved .




                                                 On the day  of application at   MMD
