Medical checkup for off signers

02 Mar 2020 / Mina Saqr, Khorfakkan, UAE

As advised by Saqr Port Immigration and Security department and Khorfakkan Port Authority, all off signer crew from alongside/ offshore vessels must go through medical checks conducted by the Health department. Once they have cleared the medical checks, then the immigration / customs clearance will be completed. In the event of any health concern raised by the Health department, the crew will have to return to the vessel.

All vessels are advised to wait in position until the crew has cleared the medical checks, otherwise they will have to return to pick up those crew who fail the medical checks.
