The medical examination and issuance of a Seaman's certificate are carried out by an approved seamen's doctor.
Medical examination
At the health examination, employees and students must present a valid identification card with a photo (passport, driver's license, national ID card, bank card with photo).聽Also bring lenses / glasses and any overview of which vaccines you have (if you are going to areas that require travel vaccination).聽If an employee / student has a medical certificate from before, this must be included.
The medical examination consists of:
- Visual acuity test (long distance - 5m), field of view and colour vision
- Hearing test
- Blood sample (if required)
- Urine sample (if required)
- Clinical examination
Employees and students are obliged to provide as complete information as possible about their own health, and a personal health declaration is completed and signed together with the seamen's doctor. If the employee/student fulfils the health, vision and hearing requirements the seamen's doctor will issue a medical certificate on a form stipulated by the Norwegian Maritime Authority.
The medical certificate is valid for 2 years.
