The National Standard for Commercial Vessels (NSCV) provides standards for vessel design, construction and equipment for domestic commercials vessels. We maintain a list of current and superseded versions of the NSCV for your information.
Most services for operators and crew of domestic commercial vessels are now provided by us instead of Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure.
There are mandatory minimum requirements for your certificates under the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers 1978 (STCW).
In this edition we provide advice on how to send us large files, what to do if you receive a complaint about a survey, provide guidance on battery safety, and more.
