What I mean Vic is that the DEKPA is arranged in double columns. of `boxes`labelled....ON ARRIVAL.....ON DEPARTURE... and each one is stamped by the port police and in the ON DEPARTURE column is written your destination.(.In this case "ITALIA")...the number of persons on board and the date. The PP also put their own signature in the same `box`.
I take that as `being signed out` of the country........as any further port police I encounter would see where I was supposed to be/be going ...for example if I got stopped by a patrol boat
