    I did my SCC at Cayman Maritime Registry and after expiration, i contacted them for a renewal.

    Thats what they came up to me:

    As of 5<sup>th</sup> July 2023, the voluntary ‘Recognition of Ship’s Cook’ certificates are no longer being provided with an expiry date.

    Certificates issued prior to 5<sup>th</sup> July 2023 can continue to be considered valid after the expiry date stated on the certificate, subject to the following conditions being met: –Seafarer to hold a valid medical certificate, and maintain basic STCW refresher training, and Food Safety and Hygiene refresher training at managerial level.

    A copy of the attached letter from this Administration should be kept with the original certificate.

    Yet i doubt it will be seen as valid from Captains.

    What do You think regarding Ari?

    Administration Letter attached.
