ICC not recognised in Holland

[Tranona]

If you read the summary on page 19 of the Autumn 2008 RYA magazine (complete with handy coloured map of Europe) you will see that the ICC is only required in Holland for Inland Waterways, not for territorial waters, where no Certificate of Competence is required other than "where certification is required within the UK Merchant Shipping Regulations".

So, it is not a question of the ICC not being "recognised" or "valid". If you are on a private UK registered leisure yacht you do not require any "licence" unless you go into Inland Waterways where the ICC with CEVNI is required. The same applies in Germany and France. See the article for further explanation.

ICC valid in countries as listed on reverse of blue licence.

Re: Latvians finally have right design !

It probably cpmes down to do or dont they recognise resolution 40. whats scary is that Spain does not fully recognise read down wooooo

IMPORTANT: The information detailed has limited applicability please read "Read this first!" to ensure that it is appropriate to you.

All country specific requirements are additional to the requirements detailed in "What paperwork do I need?"

You must carry onboard:
Spanish translation of your insurance

Certificate of competence:
The skipper of the vessel is required to have proof of competence and the Spanish Authorities will normally request to see one. Although Spain has not adopted UNECE Resolution 40, the ICC is particularly useful in such situations and it is advisable to have one.
