Registration of sea vessels, its legal significance. What flag will your yacht sail under?! Documents defining the legal status of the vessel

Registration of a ship is a legal act of recognition by the state of the emergence, limitation, transfer or termination of rights to the ship and serves as the only evidence of the existence of registered rights. These rights can only be challenged in court.

Registration of a ship in the ship register is regarded as one of the forms of state supervision over ships flying the national flag. Registration is used to control the moment a particular vessel acquires the right to sail under the flag of a given state, compliance with the legality and legitimacy of the alienation of vessels and their pledge, as well as compliance with maritime safety measures. Registration of a vessel also means that the national maritime administration body has checked the legal aspects and technical condition of the vessel, and has ensured that they fully comply with the requirements of national legislation based on international standards, and testifies this fact to third parties.

The main conditions for registering a vessel in the Register are confirmation of the cancellation of the previous registration, if any, and in the case of a bareboat charter (chartering a vessel without a crew), confirmation that the right to sail under the flag of another state has been suspended, as well as a certificate of the technical condition of the vessel issued by one of the classification societies.

The vessel is subject to registration in one of the ship registers of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as ship registers):

  • - State ship register;
  • - ship's book;
  • - bareboat charter registry;
  • - Russian International Register of Ships.

A ship can only be registered in one of the ship registries.

Registration of a ship in the State Ship Register, the Russian International Register of Ships or the ship book, ownership and other proprietary rights to the ship, as well as restrictions (encumbrances) on rights to it is the only evidence of the existence of a registered right, which can only be challenged in court.

All vessels whose technical supervision is carried out by the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping are subject to inclusion in the State Ship Register: self-propelled vessels with a main engine with a power of at least 55 kW and non-self-propelled vessels with a capacity of at least 80 tons. The registration of these vessels is carried out by the captain of the seaport.

Information on registered vessels of the fishing fleet and the rights to them is submitted quarterly by the captain of the seaport to the federal executive body in the field of fisheries.

Sports and pleasure vessels, as well as other vessels that do not fall under the conditions of registration in the State Ship Register, are registered in ship books. Registration of these vessels is carried out by the technical supervision authorities for such vessels.

The Russian International Register of Ships registers ships that are used for the international transportation of goods, passengers and their luggage, as well as for the provision of other services related to the said transportation. The use of ships for the international transport of goods, passengers and their luggage also includes the leasing of ships for the provision of such services.

Registration of ships in the Russian International Register of Ships is carried out by seaport captains, the list of which is approved by the Government of the Russian Federation.

Registration of the vessel in the Russian International Register of Ships is subject to annual confirmation.

Registration of ships owned by the Russian Federation, owned or operated by constituent entities of the Russian Federation and used only for government non-commercial service, with the exception of warships, military auxiliary ships and border ships, is carried out in the State Ship Register or Ship Book.

Floating devices that are accessories of any vessel (boats; lighters transported on board a lighter carrier; small fishing vessels transported on board a floating base - motorboats, etc.) are not subject to inclusion in the register of ships. A vessel that is entered in a register or ship book must have a name assigned by the owner of the vessel. The name of the vessel must be different from the names of other registered vessels.

The name of the vessel is marked on the bow on both sides and on the stern of the vessel. A new name can be applied to a ship only after making a corresponding change in the State Ship Register or Ship Book.

The home port of a ship is the place of its registration. The ship's home port is indicated on the stern under the ship's name.

A ship equipped with communications equipment is assigned an international call sign. Depending on the technical equipment of the vessel, it is also assigned an identification number of the ship's satellite communication station and a selective call number of the ship's station.

The formation and assignment of an international identification call sign is carried out at the place of registration of the vessel by the Radio Frequency Center, which is part of the Radio Frequency Service of the Russian Federation. Registration in the INMARSAT mobile satellite communication system of INMARSAT subscriber earth stations (including the assignment of identification numbers) belonging to Russian legal entities and individuals, as well as the assignment of a selective calling number to a ship station, is carried out by the Federal Unitary State Enterprise "Morsvyazsputnik".

When the ownership of a ship is transferred, appropriate changes are made to the State Ship Register or Ship Book.

The register contains information about the obligations with which the vessel is encumbered (transfer to trust management, pledge, mortgage, debt obligations).

Ship registers are open to any person interested in obtaining the information contained therein. The interested party has the right to receive a properly executed extract from the ship register for a fee.

A ship registered in the registry of a foreign state may be registered in the State Ship Register or Ship Book only after removal from the registry of that state and the provision of a certificate certifying that the ship has been removed or will be immediately removed from the registry at the time the new registration is made.

Registration of a Russian ship in the ship register of a foreign state has no legal force unless the ship is excluded in accordance with the established procedure from the State Ship Register or ship book.

The initial registration of a constructed vessel must be carried out within one month from the date of its launching, and of a vessel acquired outside the Russian Federation - within one month from the date of its arrival at the seaport of the Russian Federation.

Vessels entered in one of the registers of ships of the Russian Federation receive the right to sail under the State Flag of the Russian Federation.

The inclusion of a vessel in the register of ships of the Russian Federation is certified by the issuance of a certificate for the right to sail under the State Flag of the Russian Federation. After receiving the certificate, the state flag of the Russian Federation is hoisted on the ship.

Vessel. acquired abroad, enjoys the right to sail under the State Flag of the Russian Federation from the moment the consul of the Russian Federation issues a temporary certificate.

When providing a vessel for use and ownership to a foreign charterer under a bareboat charter, such a vessel may be temporarily transferred to the flag of a foreign state in the manner and under the conditions provided for by the Code of Labor and Trade of the Russian Federation.

The nationality of a ship is its nationality, which designates the authorities of which state the ship is subordinate to and the laws of which state apply to it.

In accordance with the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, ships have the nationality of the state under whose flag they have the right to fly. Each state determines the conditions for granting its nationality to ships, registration of ships on its territory and the right to fly its flag.

The Convention establishes that a ship must fly the flag of only one State and, except in exceptional cases expressly provided for in international treaties or the Convention, be subject to its exclusive jurisdiction on the high seas. A ship cannot change its flag while sailing or while at port, except in cases of a valid transfer of ownership or change of registration. A ship flying the flags of two or more states, using them at its own discretion, cannot claim recognition of any of the respective nationalities by other states and can be equated to ships without a nationality.

The Convention provides for the responsibilities of the flag state to register ships and implement real communication: the obligation of each state to exercise its jurisdiction and control over ships flying its flag in administrative, technical and social matters (jurisdiction is the exclusive right to conduct a trial, resolve legal issues, etc. .).

Each state, in relation to ships flying its flag, is obliged to take the necessary measures to ensure safety at sea, in particular with regard to the design, equipment and seaworthiness of ships, manning, working conditions and training of ship crews, use of signals, maintaining communication and preventing collisions. The flag is a determining factor in many legal relations entered into by the owner, ship owner and captain of the ship. Data about the ship’s flag also appears in contractual relations, in particular in the charter agreement. The third party with whom the master enters into an agreement must be confident in the authority of the master to enter into an agreement within the limits determined by the law of the flag. All contracts concluded on board the ship are considered to be concluded in the flag country.

In the event of a collision or any other navigational incident on the high seas, no criminal or disciplinary proceedings may be brought against the master or any other person serving on board the ship except by the judicial or administrative authorities of the flag State or the State of which he is a national. the face is. Neither arrest nor detention of a vessel on the high seas, except as specified in international law, can be carried out even as an investigative measure by order of any authority other than the flag State.

A vessel registered in one of the registries of vessels of the Russian Federation may be temporarily transferred to the flag of a foreign state on the basis of a decision of the federal executive body in the field of transport or in the field of fisheries, taking into account the opinion of the all-Russian trade union of workers in the relevant industry with the suspension of the right to sail under the State flag of the Russian Federation Federation. A vessel may be transferred to the flag of a foreign state for a period not exceeding two years, with the right to subsequently extend it every two years, but if it is sold under a bareboat charter, then not beyond the validity period of the bareboat charter. For the purposes of reflagging, the duration of the bareboat charter cannot be less than one year.

International conventions, the Merchant Shipping Code of the Russian Federation and regulations issued in their development contain a number of requirements obliging the ship to have certain ship documents that have important legal significance. The ability of the vessel to go on a voyage depends on the availability of proper ship documents on the vessel. Based on the data specified in the ship's documents, the amount of dues collected from the vessel is calculated. Only if you have the necessary documents is it possible to sell or purchase a vessel and recognize the legality of the transaction.

Ship documents, and especially logs kept on board a ship, have important evidentiary value in judicial, administrative and departmental proceedings in maritime-related incidents and disputes.

When checking a ship for compliance with navigation safety requirements, it is considered not to meet these requirements if the ship documents provided for by international conventions are missing or their validity period has expired.

Documents defining the legal status of the vessel

Certificate of the right to sail under the State Flag of the Russian Federation. Issued by the authority that registers the vessel.

Certificate of ownership of the vessel (perpetual). Issued simultaneously with the certificate of ownership of the vessel. Serves as exclusive proof of ownership of the vessel. Issued to ships with a gross tonnage of over 20 tons entered in the ship register.

Documents certifying the condition of the vessel and its suitability for operation:

  • - Certificate of fitness for navigation. Issued by the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping or a foreign classification society recognized by it for a period of five years with annual confirmation within three months before or after the expiration of the one-year period from the date of its issue. It specifies in which areas the ship can sail. It is one of the most important proofs of a vessel’s seaworthiness.
  • - Measurement certificate. Issued by the Register inspection. Contains information about the net and gross tonnage of the vessel, the dimensions of the vessel and its individual premises. According to the data of the tonnage certificate, ship and pilotage dues are collected, and the possibility of the vessel passing through locks and canals is determined.

Vessels are measured in accordance with the rules of the International Convention on Tonnage of Ships, 1969.

For passage through the Suez and Panama Canals, special measurement certificates are issued.

  • - Passenger certificate. Issued by the Register to ships carrying more than 12 passengers.
  • - Load line certificate. Issued in accordance with the requirements of the International Convention on Load Lines of 1966. Issued by the Register to ships of over 150 gross tonnage. t for a period of five years.

  • - Certificate of minimum crew size.
  • - Ship radio station license and (if the ship has a ship radio station). The license is issued by the federal executive body in the field of communications.

Documents reflecting the daily activities of the ship

Ship's log. The main official document reflecting the continuous activity of the ship in all its manifestations, as well as the objective conditions and circumstances accompanying this activity. Conducted by the captain's watch mates under the daily supervision of the captain.

The legal significance of the ship's logbook lies in the fact that those contained in the records are one of the types of written evidence in the investigation of accidents and incidents related to sea pollution, in the consideration of judicial and arbitration disputes related to damage or shortage of cargo, in the assessment of rescue actions and in other cases.

The ship's log is stored on the ship for two years from the date of the last entry. After the specified period, the ship's log is deposited with the authority where the ship is registered.

The ship's log is provided for inspection and making copies of it to persons entitled to receive relevant information.

In case of sale of a vessel outside the Russian Federation, the ship's logbook is provided for review and making copies of it to persons entitled to receive relevant information for the period preceding the sale of the vessel.

Engine log (for ships with mechanical engines). Conducted by a watch mechanic under the direct supervision of the chief (senior) engineer. Reflects the operation of the main engine and other ship mechanisms, the time of receiving and executing orders from the bridge about speed, reversing the main engine, water supply for certain purposes, receiving and pumping out ballast, fuel and lubricant consumption.

In accordance with Russian legislation, neither a bareboat charter agreement nor a management agreement for a sea vessel require state registration. Consequently, the charterer under a bareboat charter agreement and the manager can become subjects of the ISM Code from the moment this agreement enters into force and cease to be so from the moment the agreement is terminated.

Thus, two loan agreements were concluded between the company AS "Akciju komercbanka "Baltikums" (hereinafter - the Bank) and the company "Rostman Ltd". As one of the means of ensuring the fulfillment of obligations, the company "Larson Shipping Limited" pledged the marine ship "YAMBURG" (flag - Georgia, home port - Batumi), which was formalized by an agreement of obligations.

The ship's pledge is registered in the Georgian State Ship Register, the corresponding entry is contained in the certificate of ownership of the ship.

The loan agreements provide that all disputes, disagreements or claims arising from these agreements and relating to changes in the agreements, their violation, termination, legality, validity or interpretation will be resolved in the Arbitration Court of the Association of Commercial Banks of Latvia in Riga in accordance with the charter, regulations and rules on expenses of this arbitration tribunal.

In turn, the agreements on obligations establish that every dispute related to these agreements is resolved at the discretion of the creditor (Bank) in the specified arbitration court, or in other courts of the city of Riga, or in the courts of any country in which the ship may from time to time be provided that such courts shall have jurisdiction to hear and decide each such suit or proceeding.

The bank, based on a maritime claim arising from the pledge of the vessel, applied to the arbitration court with an application to take interim measures in the form of arrest of the marine vessel.

It should be noted that this vessel has already been arrested twice by a court of general jurisdiction and an arbitration court in other cases and maritime claims and with the participation of other persons (for the collection of wages and debt for bunkering (fuel supply) of the vessel, respectively).

When considering this case, the following questions arose before the courts: is the arbitration court competent in relation to this dispute? Is it also possible to arrest a ship if it has already been arrested for another case and reason?

The arrest of a sea vessel is a special form of securing a claim, regulated by Chapter. XXIII Code of Merchant Shipping of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Code of Merchant Shipping of the Russian Federation), Ch. 8 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, as well as the provisions of the International Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to the Arrest of Sea Vessels, concluded in Brussels on May 10, 1952 (hereinafter referred to as the Brussels Convention).

In the case under consideration, the disputed ship was flying the flag of Georgia. This state does not participate in the Brussels Convention. However, the Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation indicated that when deciding on the arrest of a vessel, one should be guided by the Brussels Convention, despite the fact that the sea vessel flies the flag of Georgia, which is not a party to such a Convention (clause 2 of Article 8 of the Brussels Convention).

You should also pay attention to the explanations of the highest courts regarding the pledge of a sea vessel. These clarifications are contained in the Information Letter of the Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation dated August 13, 2004 N 81 “Review of the practice of application by arbitration courts of the Merchant Shipping Code of the Russian Federation” (hereinafter referred to as Information Letter N 81) and in the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated November 20, 2003 N 18 “On jurisdiction of cases arising from maritime claims."

As follows from paragraph 1 of Art. 388 of the Code of Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the arrest of a vessel is any detention or restriction in the movement of a vessel while it is within the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation, carried out on the basis of a court order, an arbitration court or an arbitration court authorized by law to impose arrest on maritime matters to secure a maritime claim, with the exception of detention vessel carried out to enforce a decision of a court, arbitration court or arbitration tribunal that has entered into legal force.

The Brussels Convention contains a similar definition of arrest, according to paragraph 2 of Art. 1 of which “arrest” means the detention of a ship carried out in accordance with judicial proceedings to secure a maritime claim, but does not include the detention of a ship for the execution of a court decision.

Accordingly, if the basis for the application to arrest the vessel is not a maritime claim, then this application will be refused.

At the same time, as noted by the Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation in paragraph 16 of Information Letter No. 81, the arrest of a sea vessel in the sense of the rules of the Code of Labor Code of the Russian Federation is a special interim measure regulated not only by the Code of Labor Code of the Russian Federation, but also Ch. 8 Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.

Therefore, when making a request to arrest a ship, the applicant must prove that failure to take this measure may complicate or make impossible the execution of a judicial act, as well as lead to significant losses.

In addition, the applicant must provide counter security according to the rules of Art. 94 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, that is, by depositing funds into the court’s deposit account in the amount proposed by the court, or by providing a bank guarantee, surety or other financial security for the same amount.

In relation to the arrest of a sea vessel, judicial practice classifies as permissible methods of “other financial security” a guarantee of compensation for losses if it is issued by one of the largest insurance organizations (mutual insurance clubs) insuring the liability of shipowners (Resolution of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the North Caucasus District dated June 30, 2009).

Also in judicial practice, the following conditions are encountered for satisfying an application for the arrest of a vessel (along with compliance with the requirements of Part 2 of Article 90 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation):

  • - providing evidence of the “proportionality and adequacy of the stated property claims to the possible negative consequences of the use of interim measures” (Resolutions of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Far Eastern District dated November 10, 2010, FAS Northwestern District dated November 27, 2008);
  • - providing evidence of “the proportionality and adequacy of the stated property claims to the possible negative consequences of the non-application of preliminary interim measures” (Resolution of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the North-Western District dated November 27, 2008);
  • - justification of the relationship between a specific method of security in the form of arrest of a sea vessel and claims, which must be direct and immediate (Resolution of the Ninth Arbitration Court of Appeal dated December 29, 2008).

As for the jurisdiction to resolve disputes regarding the arrest of a vessel, the practice of both arbitration courts and courts of general jurisdiction proceeds from the fact that such a dispute is considered by the court at the location of the vessel. As a rule, this is the location of the seaport where the ship entered (see, for example, paragraph 18 of Information Letter No. 81). This is directly indicated by the Plenum of the RF Armed Forces. According to para. 4 clause 2 of its Resolution No. 18 of November 20, 2003 “On the jurisdiction of cases arising from maritime claims”, the location of the vessel should be understood as its location in the sea trade, fishing and specialized ports located in the Russian Federation. At the same time, as noted by the courts of general jurisdiction, there is no other procedure for determining the territorial jurisdiction of cases arising from maritime claims (Resolution of the Presidium of the St. Petersburg City Court dated July 21, Determination of the Primorsky Regional Court dated May 25, 2010).

The above complies with the norms of the Brussels Convention, since in accordance with Part 2 of Art. 6 of this Convention, all procedural issues arising in connection with the arrest are governed by the legislation of the state in which the arrest was imposed or the application for seizure was made.

The court of first instance in its ruling left the application for interim measures without satisfaction, which was supported by the courts of appeal and cassation.

The courts proceeded from the fact that the ship had already been arrested twice, and in accordance with paragraph 1 of Art. 392 of the Code of Labor Code of the Russian Federation, as a general rule, if an arrest has already been imposed to secure a maritime claim, then such a vessel cannot be arrested again.

The Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation, in the Determination adopted in this case, came to the conclusion that it is necessary to revise, in the manner of supervision, judicial acts of lower authorities "in order to determine a uniform approach to the issue of applying interim measures in the form of seizure of property in the presence of previously taken interim measures in the form of seizure of property for another requirement in relation to the same object."

The judicial panel of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation came to the conclusion that the court was entitled to seize the disputed vessel. Regarding the argument that this vessel was previously arrested, therefore a subsequent arrest is impossible, in its Determination the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation indicated the following: Art. 392 of the Code of Labor Code allows for the arrest of a vessel, even if this vessel has already been arrested, provided that these arrests were imposed on various grounds (maritime requirements).

Please note that the Determination of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation is a procedural act and does not contain the legal position of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation, since it does not resolve the dispute on the merits.

However, in this case, the Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation generally supported the conclusions reached by the judicial panel of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation.

The Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation adheres to the following position:

The Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation canceled the judicial acts of the lower authorities and sent the case for a new trial. At the same time, the highest court formulated the following legal position.

If there is a maritime claim, the arbitration court within whose jurisdiction the ship is located has the right to arrest the ship, assessing the party’s application from the point of view of the presence of procedural grounds for the use of interim measures - ensuring the actual execution of a future court decision or maintaining the status quo, including in order to prevent damage significant damage to the applicant.

The arrest of a ship is possible even if the ship is under the flag of a foreign state and belongs to a foreign organization.

Also, the arrest of a ship is possible even when the ship has previously been arrested, but for a different maritime requirement. That is, the arbitration court has the right to apply interim measures in the form of the arrest of a sea vessel in the presence of previously taken interim measures in the form of the arrest of the same ship at the request of other persons and on other grounds.

The Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation indicated that the interpretation of legal norms contained in the Resolution under consideration is mandatory and is subject to application when arbitration courts consider similar cases.

We inform you that based on clause 5.1 of the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation dated March 12, 2007 N 17 “On the application of the Arbitration Procedural Code of the Russian Federation when reviewing judicial acts that have entered into legal force based on newly discovered circumstances” and clause 1 of the operative part of the Resolution of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation dated 01/21/2010 N 1-P the considered Resolution of the Presidium of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation is not a basis for reviewing cases based on newly discovered circumstances, since it does not contain a direct indication that the legal positions set out in it have retroactive effect.

To receive a Kuril pension, you must not only work, but also live in the Kuril Islands

The editors of Rybak Sakhalin received a letter from a resident of Poronaysk, D.D. Listkov, a former employee of the Poronaisky fish factory, and now a pensioner. He asked for clarification of what bonuses and coefficients to the salaries of sailors on vessels of the fishing industry fleet are taken into account when calculating pensions. In particular, if the ship operated in the area of ​​the southern Kuril Islands.

We, in turn, turned to the branch of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation for the Sakhalin Region for clarification. We think the detailed answer received from his leader will be of interest to other readers of our newspaper. Therefore, we publish it in full, without abbreviations.

Dear Dmitry Dmitrievich!

Currently, pension provision for citizens is carried out in accordance with the Federal Law “On Labor Pensions in the Russian Federation” dated December 17, 2001 No. 173-FZ, in accordance with clause. 9 clause 1 art. 27 of which men who have reached the age of 50 have the right to an old-age labor pension, if they have at least 12 years 6 months of special experience in the crew, at least 15 calendar years of work in the Far North or 20 calendar years of work in areas equivalent to the regions of the Far North, and at least 25 years of insurance experience.

Moreover, in accordance with this Law, the amount of the pension consists of a basic and insurance parts.

The basic part of the labor pension is set at a fixed amount and is additionally increased for persons who have reached the age of 80, persons with 3 degrees of disability and persons with disabled dependents.

The Federal Law of November 29, 2003 No. 154-FZ, which entered into force on January 1, 2004, “On increasing the basic part of the labor pension for persons living in the regions of the Far North and equivalent areas” stipulates that the amount of the basic part of the labor pension for citizens living in the specified areas (localities), is determined using the corresponding regional coefficient for the non-production sector for the entire period of residence. In the Poronaisky district, a regional coefficient for the non-production sector is used - 1.4, and currently the size of the basic part of the old-age labor pension is 2,730 rubles.

According to paragraph 2 of Art. 28 of the Law of December 17, 2001 No. 173-FZ, when classifying certain regions and localities as regions of the Far North and localities equated to them, the List of regions of the Far North and localities equated to them, approved by Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR dated November 10, 1967 No. 1029, is used, with subsequent additions and changes. This List provides for specific territories of cities, districts, and islands.

The seas and oceans are not covered by the above List, and the fact of receiving wages with an increased coefficient does not indicate work in the Far North and equivalent areas.

In accordance with Articles 29 and 33 of the Merchant Shipping Code of the Russian Federation dated April 30, 1999 No. 81-FZ, a vessel acquires the right to sail under the State Flag of the Russian Federation from the moment of registration in the State Ship Register in one of the sea trade or fishing ports of the Russian Federation, during which the area of ​​its navigation is determined and the relevant documents are issued.

The territorial affiliation of a ship is determined by the ship’s home port, therefore, the territorial working conditions of the crew members of this ship are also determined by the location of the home port.

Thus, if a person is employed by an organization as a crew member on ships, then the territorial conditions are determined by the place of registration of the ship.

As for small vessels, after state registration of the vessel and ownership of them, a ship ticket for a small vessel is issued, which certifies the right to sail under the State Flag of the Russian Federation and establishes the ownership of the vessel to the shipowner indicated in it. The territorial affiliation of small vessels is determined by the place of permanent basing (berthing) of vessels on the basis of ship tickets.

Since the ships on which you worked were assigned to ports located in areas equated to the regions of the Far North, the periods of work at sea are reasonably taken into account as work in areas equated to the regions of the Far North.

Due to the fact that you do not have the required work experience in the regions of the Far North, your pension is legally paid taking into account the regional coefficient for the non-productive sector of 1.4.

In addition, the insurance part of the pension depends on the length of calendar work experience as of 01/01/2002, the pensioner’s earnings and the amount of insurance contributions received by the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation into the pensioner’s individual account after 01/01/2002.

Moreover, according to Article 30 of the above-mentioned Law, the insurance part of the labor pension is determined taking into account the ratio of the average monthly salary of a pensioner to the average monthly salary in the country not exceeding 1.2. For persons living as of December 31, 2001 in the regions of the Far North and localities equivalent to them (this circumstance can be confirmed by registration at the place of residence, the fact of work, a court decision), and the insurance part of the pension is established taking into account the increased index of the ratio of the pensioner’s earnings to similar wages pay across the country (in the Poronai region it is 1.4) regardless of age and length of service.

For those who, as of December 31, 2001, did not live in the specified areas and localities, but worked for at least 15 calendar years in the Far North or at least 20 calendar years in equivalent areas and with 25 years of insurance experience for men and 20 years – for women, as well as in the presence of a salary certificate indicating the regional coefficient for the last place of work, the right to an increased earnings ratio index is also granted, regardless of place of residence.

Since you did not live in the Far North regions as of 01/01/2002 and you do not have a job on this date in the Far North regions, there is no basis for determining the insurance part of the labor pension with an earnings ratio index higher than 1.4.

Whatever brings you to our page, a accidentally clicked link, a search engine, idle curiosity or necessity -

We welcome you dear visitor!

So, since you did not enter through the entrance for professionals, you honestly admitted to yourself and to us that you are a UNKNOWER. It's not a problem - right? We are all know-nothings - just in different areas :)

However, what kind of ignorant are you? If you own a bicycle, then you are already familiar with the basic knowledge of a mechanic - wheel, bearing, shaft, chain, gear, crank, spring, what else? All that remains is to get acquainted with the purely MARINE features of our craft.

What is this page that you will find here. Let's try to help figure this out. Much of what you find on the full page will rightly seem boring and uninteresting to you. Some purely professional rants. But there is also something for the curious.

To begin with, so that the words do not hurt your ears and do not lead to confusion, look into the small DICTIONARY. In addition to clever or humorous explanations, you will find here some very childish and frivolous ones - but we hope they are all equally useful.

MINI DICTIONARY OF NON-ZNAYKA WITH THE NECESSARY ADDITIONS

First, remember a couple of basic concepts, and then no one will immediately notice that you are a stranger.

First - VESSEL, is not SHIP. Because a ship is a “military vessel”, and a ship is a “merchant, cargo ship”. It's clear? In truth, sailors don't like the word "ship". Did you guess why? That's why sailors say - . Although this is not always correct (see dictionary)

And secondly, ships, ships and sailors do not SAIL, but WALK. So to the question “Do you swim?” The rude answer may sound like this: “Shit floats, but a sailor walks!”

And one more thing - they always say “went to sea” or “went on a voyage”

CPU- central control station. Well, it’s almost like being in a spaceship :) Or rather, in it. From here His Majesty and all the rest are governed.

Tokarka- this is a workshop in which there is a lathe and next to it there is a turner who sharpens on the lathe. Here it is absolutely necessary to explain that round parts are sharpened on a LATHE, but knives and scissors are sharpened on a SHARPENING machine. Already confused?

Smoking room- here they relax, smoke, joke and generally communicate. The smoking room is practically a communication center for the crew, a club, a forum, if you like. This is one of the most useful places on the ship for the development of Dunno. But they can also joke here.

If you want, you can get to know the authors a little better

You can communicate with sailors and others at one of the Forums.

Approximate list of documents to be amended

port of registration of a ship registered in the RMRS

General information

The seaport of registration of a vessel can be changed based on applications from the owner of the vessel (Russian charterer of the vessel) sent to the captain of the seaport of registration and the captain of the new seaport of registration of the vessel.

When changing the seaport of registration of a vessel, the captain of the previous seaport of registration of the vessel sends, in accordance with the established procedure, the captain of the new seaport of registration of the vessel, the register of the vessel and the ship's file. In this case, a corresponding entry is made in the “Special Notes” column of the Russian International Register of Ships.

The owner of the ship must inform the mortgagee of the registered mortgage or other encumbrance of the same nature on the ship about the upcoming change in the sea port of registration of the ship and obtain the appropriate consent.

The captain of the new seaport of registration, who has received the ship's register and the ship's file, assigns the vessel a new serial registration number and enters all the information contained in the Russian International Register of Ships maintained in the previous seaport of registration of the ship into the Russian International Register of Ships maintained in the new seaport vessel registration.

The captain of the new seaport of registration of the vessel must inform the captain of the previous seaport of registration about the completion of the vessel registration procedure. Upon receipt of this message, the captain of the previous seaport of registration of the vessel makes an entry in the Russian International Register of Ships indicating the new seaport of registration and the new serial registration number of the vessel.

Along with the application for changing the seaport of registration of a vessel registered in the Russian International Register of Ships, the captain of the new seaport of registration of the vessel is presented with a document confirming payment of the state fee for registering the vessel and for issuing a Certificate of Ownership of the vessel and/or a Certificate of the right to navigate under the State flag of the Russian Federation in the previous seaport of registration.

Changing the seaport of registration of a vessel registered in the Russian International Register of Ships is permitted within the seaports, the list of which is approved by Order of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 583-r dated April 25, 2006.
